Lagelu Chairman Hon. Mudashiru Kamorudeen Spreads Joy with Food Packs, Cash Gifts to Party Members & Residents Ahead of Eid el-Fitr

LAGELU, Nigeria — In a heartfelt gesture of goodwill, Hon. Mudashiru Kamorudeen, the Executive Chairman of Lagelu Local Government has rolled out an ambitious initiative to distribute food packs and cash gifts to party members and residents alike, just in time for Eid el-Fitr celebrations.

The move, announced Saturday evening, underscores a spirit of unity and compassion as Muslims worldwide prepare to mark the end of Ramadan.

The bustling streets of Lagelu buzzed with gratitude as hundreds of beneficiaries lined up to receive the aid packages— a mix of essential food items and monetary support designed to ease the burden on families during the festive season.

The council chairman, Kamorudeen framed the effort as a tribute to the resilience of his community and a celebration of shared values.

“This is a time for joy, reflection, and togetherness,” Kamorudeen said in a statement, his voice steady with conviction. “As we approach Eid el-Fitr, I want every family in Lagelu—whether party faithful or not—to feel the warmth of this occasion. Ramadan has been a period of sacrifice and renewal, and it’s only right we extend a hand to one another.”

The initiative, which has drawn praise from local leaders and residents, reflects a broader commitment to grassroots support that Kamorudeen has championed during his tenure.

Sources close to the chairman’s office reveals that the distribution effort was meticulously planned, with food packs containing staples like rice, beans, and yam flour, alongside cash gifts to help cover additional expenses on local residents— with the scale of the outreach suggesting a significant investment in community welfare.

In homes across the local government area, families unpacked their food packs, counting their blessings—and their chairman’s generosity—as the promise of a brighter holiday took root.

For many in Lagelu, the timing couldn’t be more poignant. Eid el-Fitr, the Islamic holiday marking the end of the month-long fast, is a moment of feasting and festivity—but economic pressures have left some families struggling to partake in the tradition. “This means everything to us,” said Amina Yusuf, a mother of three who received a food pack and cash on Saturday.

“The chairman has shown he sees us, he hears us. Now we can celebrate with dignity.”

Kamorudeen also took the opportunity to extend warm congratulations to Muslims in Lagelu and beyond.

“To all my brothers and sisters in faith, I say Eid Mubarak,” he declared. “May this Eid bring peace, prosperity, and renewed strength to our community, state, and our nation.”
