The Senator representing Lagos East Senatorial district, Senator Mukhail Adetokunbo Abiru has urged Muslims to continue praying for the success of the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, stressing that bold decisions, reforms of the president have started yielding results.

He commended the League of Imams and Alfas for sustaining the annual prayer session, noting that such platforms play a vital role in strengthening community cohesion and encouraging prayers for the peace and progress of Nigeria.

In his address, Senator Abiru highlighted several development interventions facilitated across Ibeju-Lekki as part of his representation of Lagos East Senatorial District. They include blocks of classrooms, primary health centres, Doctors’ quarters, sports facilities, among others.

He said the Federal Government has taken bold steps to stabilise the country’s economy through structural reforms designed to strengthen public finances, encourage investment and improve productivity.

The lawmaker further noted that infrastructure development remains central to the administration’s agenda, citing the ongoing Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway as a major national project that will enhance connectivity and economic opportunities along Nigeria’s coastal corridor.
