ABS Foundation Launches Ramadan Iftar Programme Across Five States, Echoing Dr Saraki's Call for Unity
Former Senate President and founder of the Abubakar Bukola Saraki (ABS) Foundation, Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki, has underscored the importance of unity, generosity, and supplication during the holy month of Ramadan and beyond.
Speaking in response to the ABS Foundation's ongoing iftar meal-sharing initiative in several Nigerian states, Dr Saraki urged Nigerians to transcend religious divides and use the fasting period to pray fervently for the nation's well-being. He stressed that privileged individuals must ensure the less advantaged have access to basic comforts during Ramadan, particularly amid the country's current economic challenges.
As part of its annual tradition, the ABS Foundation will distribute iftar meals across selected mosques in Kwara, Niger, Borno, Kano, and the Federal Capital Territory (Abuja). The initiative will continue through the final 10 days of Ramadan, a period of heightened spiritual significance.
Hon. Musa Aliyu, the Regional Director of the ABS Foundation for North Central Nigeria, disclosed these plans in a statement released on Wednesday, March 19, 2025. The programme aligns with the foundation's commitment to fostering communal harmony and supporting vulnerable groups through acts of compassion.
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.
