Date: 2020-11-17

A special thanksgiving prayer was on Sunday held in honour of Adeoye Owolewa, a Nigerian who won an election into US congress for Columbia District, by his family members in Omu-Aran, in the Irepodun Local Goverment Area of Kwara State.

The prayer which was led by the Chief Imam of Omu-Aran, Alhaji Sodiq Alalobo, took place at the Owolewa family compound, in Igangu, Omu-Aran.

Alhaji Alalobo, who read some portions of the Holy Quran, offered prayers for more success for the Owolewas.

The Olomu of Omu-Aran, Oba Abdulraheem Adeoti, represented by Eesa of Omu-Aran, High Chief Jide Adebayo, said he was delighted as it was the first time a Nigerian will be attaining such height in the US.

Speaking on behalf of the family, Alhaji Funsho Owolewa, said the Owolewas were always the first in almost everything good things.

He prayed that Allah uplift others in the family because he believes with the special grace of God, many of such good news are ahead for the family.

The Owolewa family members later moved to the palace of Olomu of Omu-Aran where they were received by a joyous crowd while Oba Adeoti prayed for the family.
