Saraki Foundation Launches Iftar Meal Sharing In Five States
Former Senate President and founder, ABS Foundation, Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki, has harped on the importance of togetherness, giving and supplication during the month of Ramadan and beyond.
He said all Nigerians across religious divides must devote the fasting period to pray for Nigeria and seek Allah’s intervention.
Saraki who spoke while reacting to the commencement of iftar meal sharing in some states of the federation by his Abubakar Bukola Saraki Foundation, said privileged individuals must endeavor to make the fasting season comfortable for the less privileged, especially because of the economic situation in the country.
As part of its annual tradition, the ABS Foundation is to commence the sharing of Iftar meals across selected mosques in Kwara, Niger, Borno, Kano and the federal capital territory, Abuja.
The ABS Foundation Ramadan Iftar programme is to run through the last 10 days of the holy month of fasting.
Hon. Musa Aliyu, the Regional Director, ABS Foundation, North Central, disclosed this in a statement released on Wednesday, March 19, 2025.
According to him, the foundation hopes to accommodate at least 100 people per mosque with over 50 mosques being targeted across Kwara State.
The iftar welfare programme will also hold at selected mosques in Niger, Borno, Kano and the FCT.
Aliyu added that the gesture, which is an annual practice, is to extend love to the Muslim Ummah, and ensure that the needy also participate in the fasting without any lack.
