The Vice-Chancellor of the University of Ilorin, Prof. Wahab Egbewole (SAN), has urged Muslims to reflect on the lessons learnt during Ramadan in all aspects of their lives.

He congratulated members of the institution’s Muslim community and the entire Muslim Ummah on the Eid el-Fitr celebration.

This is contained in a statement on Saturday by the University’s Director of Corporate Affairs, Mr Kunle Akogun.

Egbewole said the occasion called for celebration as it marked the successful conclusion of the month-long fasting.

He described the Ramadan fast as an opportunity for personal attitudinal transformation and communal rebirth.

The Vice-Chancellor noted that fasting was meant to train and retrain Muslims on discipline, spirituality, and observance of corporate social responsibility toward Muslims and humanity as a whole.

He called on Muslims to remain faithful, law-abiding, dutiful, and generous, as they had been throughout the past month.

“If Muslims and other Nigerians maintain the admirable attitudes they upheld while fasting, Nigeria will regain her lost glory in no distant time,” he said.

Egbewole assured staff and students of the University of his administration’s commitment to their welfare and well-being.

He urged Muslims to continue cooperating with the management of Unilorin for the benefit of all.
