The Bayo Lawal I Know Is A Devoted Muslim By Badmos Adesola

First and Foremost, I sincerely appreciate His Excellency, Governor Oluwaseyi Makinde for the sound recognition to Irepo Federal constituency by nominating Barr AbdurRaheem Adebayo Lawal as his running mate in the forthcoming Gubernatorial election coming up on 2023. 

It is also worthy to commend the PDP Party leaders from Oke Ogun zone and Oyo State for supporting the nomination process for retaining DG candidate to Old Irepo Federal Constituency. In fact, the candidates vying for the position are eminently competent and qualified, but the fact that the office of the Deputy Governor is zone to the Old Irepo Federal Constituency gave Barrister Bayo Lawal an edge over others being an Astute politician.

Having to put inks in paper straight concerning what is unknown but known by using Political gimmick and propaganda to deviate people’s from Working Governor agenda ahead of 2023.

Precisely “Concerned Muslim Brotherhood” under the Leadership of Alhaji Gbolagade Abdulmajeed said about Barrister Bayo Lawal, the group should be sincere and promote the peace state. There’s justification for everything in Holy Qur’an.

However Quranic injunctions maintain that nobody/group has the prerogative right to either say somebody is not a Muslim or is not known in the Muslim community. The so called “Concerned Muslim Brotherhood” is not in existence in Oke Ogun Community let alone in Oyo State. We know NACOMYO, N.S.C.I A other’s. The said concerned group can only be found on a Paper.

So I don’t see any justification that Barr Bayo Lawal is not a Muslim as his only practicing Religion is Islam. We should all as Muslims accept that Barrister Bayo Lawal is the God fearing and committed Muslim DG, and give him maximum support for the Continuity of Good governance. 

I want set record straight, Barrister AbdurRaheem Adebayo Lawal was born and bred in Islam from Irepo Local Government,Kishi Oyo State. He has never for one day denounced his religion (Islam). And he has been supporting Islam and Muslim community in Kishi, Oke-Ogun and beyond. Between 1999-2003 he was nominated to represent Muslim Community in the cabinet of Late Governor Lam Adeshina being Anthony General of the State. 

It is on record that he has been sending pilgrims (both Muslims and Christians) on pilgrimage for quite sometimes and Ramadan packages to Muslims during the Month of Ramadan. Respectively being the Chairman, Oyo State Housing Corporation, he has initiated the construction of the modern mosque in the corporate headquarters of Oyo State Housing Corporation, Ibadan.

On a final note as earlier published by Irepo Radio, being a Muslim is not to be judged by anybody or group. Judgment is better left for God Almighty. I would therefore urge the Concerned Muslim Brotherhood to go and read and digest Surah Al-Mumeem (Q23 V1-118) and Surah Al-Munafiqun (Q43V1-11) for them to know “who is a Muslim”..

Come now or later we will come to the full understanding of what religion truly means; a personal practice that you shouldn’t be bothered at the instance of being misunderstood.

Barrister (Chief) Abdulraheem Bayo Lawal  is a Muslim and a native of Irepo local government, Kishi.

With my submission,, this rancor and argument about our Gov Seyi Makinde Running mate religion should be thrown in dustbin.

  1. The Lawal from Kishi whom I know are majorly Christians. I have them as friends. So I won’t doubt it if Barr. Adebayo Lawal is called a Christian.
