As the holy months of Ramadan and Lent approach in 2026, Oyo State lawmaker Rasaq Mabaje has emphasized the importance of unity, sacrifice, and seeking divine mercy among the citizens. In a recent statement, Mabaje encouraged people of all faiths to come together during these significant periods of reflection and devotion.

Ramadan, observed by Muslims worldwide, is a month of fasting, prayer, and community, while Lent, celebrated by Christians, is a season of penance, reflection, and preparation for Easter. Both months underline core values of compassion, self-discipline, and spiritual growth.
Mabaje called on individuals to take this opportunity to strengthen bonds within their communities, promote acts of kindness, and engage in charitable activities that uplift the less fortunate. He highlighted that the spirit of sacrifice inherent in both observances encourages individuals to reflect on their lives and make positive changes.

In his message, the lawmaker also stressed the need for divine mercy in a world often marked by division and strife. He urged people to pray for peace, understanding, and harmony across religious and cultural divides.


As Oyo prepares to observe these sacred times, Mabaje’s call for unity and introspection resonates with many, reminding citizens that through collective effort and compassion, they can foster a more inclusive and supportive society.
