Oyetola Urges Citizens To Imbibe The Spirit Of Service To God And Humanity

Osun state Governor Adegboyega Oyetola has enjoined citizens to imbibe the spirit of philanthropy and service to God and humanity.

He said since worldly things are ephemeral; it is incumbent on those favoured with abundant resources to deploy their wealth to assist the needy.

Governor Oyetola spoke at the inauguration of the 138-year old mosque rebuilt by Osun State Supervisor for Finance, Commerce and Industry, Mr. Bola Oyebamiji in Ikire, at the weekend.

Oyetola urged well-to-do citizens to help the needy and
join hands with government to advance the economy of the state for the benefit of the people.

“Helping one another is directly proportional to helping the government since government is constituted to guarantee the security of lives and property of the citizens as well as the general welfare of all.

“‎We should all emulate the kind-heartedness and philanthropic gestures,” he said.

In his sermon, the Guest Lecturer, Sheik Abdul-Gafar Muhammed Yaya implored people to emulate Oyebamiji’s philanthropic gesture.

He called on well-meaning Nigerians to cultivate the habit of humanitarian development.

Oyebamiji expressed gratitude to God for giving him the enablement to complete the project He appreciated Governor Oyetola for taking time to inaugurate the mosque.
