Speaker Obasa highlighted the essence of Eid al-Adha, which commemorates the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God. He drew parallels between this spirit of sacrifice and the modern-day necessity of aiding the disadvantaged. “As we celebrate this significant occasion,” he noted, “let us remember those who are less fortunate. Compassion should be at the core of our hearts, motivating us to support the needy among us.”

He called on residents of Lagos State, especially the Muslim ummah, to extend their hands in kindness and participate in charitable acts, whether through donations, food distribution, or other forms of assistance to those facing hardships. “I encourage everyone to open their hearts and contribute to the welfare of others. It is through our collective efforts that we can alleviate suffering and build a more inclusive society,” he stated.

In the sallah message, Obasa stressed the need for individuals to embody the spirit of sacrifice in their daily lives, not only during festive periods but throughout the year. He reminded the public that sharing and caring for others fosters a sense of belonging and creates a more harmonious society.

The Speaker also reflected on the values of unity and community that Eid embodies, encouraging citizens all over the country to come together regardless of their differences. “Eid al-Adha teaches us the power of togetherness. Let us embrace our diversity and strengthen our bonds as a community, ensuring that no one is left behind,” he added.

Dr Obasa further extended his warm greetings to all Muslims in Lagos State, urging them to celebrate safely and responsibly while reflecting on the deeper meanings of the holiday. “Let us celebrate with gratitude and a renewed commitment to helping people around. May this Eid bring peace, joy, and prosperity to us all,” he concluded.
