ABEOKUTA – The Publisher of Great Achiever Magazine, Yomi Ogunsanu, has organized his annual Ramadan Tafsir for Muslim community in Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State.
The Ramadan Tafsir took place on Saturday, 21st February, 2026, at Ago-Iwoye home town of the publisher.
The Tafsir, which had in attendance Muslim faithful across Ago-Iwoye, was officiated by Imam Akorede Badru of Igan Itun Nla Mosque.
Alhaji Badru, in his sermon, congratulated Muslims throughout the world for witnessing another Ramadan, noting that it is a period to seek Allah’s forgiveness and earn increased rewards through acts of worship such as supplication, prayer and charity.
He further stated that Ramadan, being a month of fasting, worship, communal gathering and service, is one of the five pillars of Islam, and therefore should be observed with piety.
Alhaji Badru urged Muslim faithful to use the opportunity of this year’s Ramadan to pray for Nigeria so that peace and progress will reign in the country.
The cleric commended Yomi Ogunsanu for holding forth in the family after the demise of his father, Alhaji S.O Ogunsanu, a respected community and Islamic leader in Ago-Iwoye, who died twenty years ago.
Alhaji Badru disclosed that during his lifetime, Alhaji S.O Ogunsanu contributed immensely to the growth of Islam in Ago-Iwoye, while his footprints remain indelible at Igan Itun Nla Mosque, where he championed development projects.
He therefore challenged Yomi Ogunsanu and his siblings to continue in the footsteps of their late father who lived a life of service to humanity.
Mufassir Ismail Bello, in a lecture delivered at the occasion, titled: UNITY: The cornerstone of Islam as a religion, why disunity among Muslims?emphasized on the need for Muslim faithful to be more united, noting that Islam is a religion of peace, and therefore, disunity should not have a place among its adherents.
Mufassir Bello decried factionalisation in Islam, saying that the practice of Islam as a religion is universal.
Bello said: “Muslims across the world observe the mandatory five times daily prayer, and during each prayer session, respective rakats are the same everywhere, which shows that Islam is one”.
Bello blamed seeming misunderstandings among some Islamic leaders and adherents on misinformation and misinterpretation of the holy Quran, and therefore called on Islamic leaders to continue to seek more knowledge in order to lead their followers aright.
Mufassir Bello enjoined Muslim faithful to be conscious of their culture in the practice of Islam.
Several verses of the holy Quran were read, followed by their interpretations to enlighten the people in attendance. Prayers were offered to conclude the lecture.
