The annual lecture, themed “Good Representative,” focused on the core values of accountability, integrity, justice, humility, and selfless service as essential pillars of leadership.

“Leadership is a trust from Allah, and every representative will be accountable for how that trust is managed,” he stated.
The Chief Host, Fadilat Sheikh Abdul Semiu Opeloyeru Ajayi, provided spiritual guidance throughout the programme and offered prayers for peace, unity, and sustained development in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos East, and Nigeria at large.

Commending Senator Abiru for sustaining the annual Ramadan Lecture Series, Hon. Olowa described the initiative as impactful and timely.

He further urged elected representatives to reflect deeply on their mandate.
“As leaders, we must imbibe the fear of God and commit ourselves to being good representatives of our people,” he added.
Senator Abiru’s Ramadan Lecture Series has continued to serve as a unifying platform across Lagos East, promoting enlightenment, moral reflection, and solidarity among Muslim communities.
