 Eid-fitri: Toyin Alabi Calls for Integrity, Action

By Christie Doyin 

The Toyin Alabi Media Team has issued a goodwill message to mark the celebration of Eid, from Dr. Oluwatoyin Tajudeen  Alabi extending warm greetings to Muslims in Igbaja, Ilorin, Kwara State as a whole and across the world.


In the statement, Dr. Alabi congratulated the Muslim faithful on the successful completion of Ramadan, describing the holy month as a period of spiritual renewal, discipline, and personal growth. He emphasised that the lessons learned during the fasting period should not end with the celebration but should instead shape everyday conduct and community development.


“Integrity is the currency that never loses value,” he stated, urging individuals to uphold strong moral principles in both personal and public life. He further described Ramadan as a “spiritual workshop,” noting that the discipline, sacrifice, and excellence demonstrated during the period should now be translated into meaningful action.


Dr. Alabi called on citizens to channel the values of the season into building stronger communities, stressing the need to move beyond promises toward tangible results.


According to him, the post-Ramadan period presents an opportunity for individuals and leaders alike to adopt higher standards of accountability and performance.


He also expressed hope that the Eid celebration would usher in positive transformation for families, communities, and the nation at large.


The message concluded with a renewed call for unity, progress, and sustained commitment to development, as he wished all Muslim faithful a peaceful and joyous Eid celebration.

Eid Mubarak.

  Dr A. R. Kamal : Tribute to An Apostle of Simplicity By Abubakar Imam On Wednesday, January 7, 2026, Ilorin Emirate lost one of its finest patriots, Dr AbdulGafar Rasheed Kamal . Until his death, Dr Kamal was the Executive Director/Chief Executive Officer of the National Centre for Agricultural Mechanization (NCAM), Ilorin .  The death of Dr Kamal came to me with a rude shock. But who can question the decision of the Giver and Taker of life?.  Nevertheless, I initially found the news very difficult to believe until I placed a call to my sister and colleague, Mrs Fatima Rasheed of Kwara State Television Service , who confirmed the sad news to me. His demise reminds me of the Yoruba saying, "Igi tí ó bá tó, kìí pé nígbó" (a tall and straight tree does not last in the bush). Dr Kamal was a perfect gentleman. He was very humble, patriotic and sublime. Because of my interest in always meeting people, I had always known the deceased as one of the rising stars of the southe...
