Wife of Kogi State Governor, Hajia Sefinat Ododo, has called on women to remain steadfast in prayers beyond Ramadan, encouraging them to deepen their faith in God, support their families, and pray for the progress of the state and the nation.

She made this appeal while hosting female appointees and other women groups to iftar (breaking of fast), on wednesday, in Lokoja.

The first lady emphasised the importance of spiritual devotion, unity, and mutual support.

She urged women to build peaceful homes, encourage their husbands through prayer, and continue seeking divine guidance even after fasting.

Expressing her gratitude to those in attendance, the first lady acknowledged the significance of the gathering. “I am deeply grateful for today and for everyone who took the time to come and break the fast with me.

She  encouraged women to use the spiritual renewal gained during Ramadan to maintain their connection with God.

“Fasting should bring us closer to Allah, but we must ensure that this closeness continues beyond Ramadan. Our prayers should not end with fasting but should become a way of life,” she added.

The Chief Imam of the Government House Mosque, Sheikh Musa Bashir, who spoke at the event, commended Mrs Ododo for her commitment to promoting faith and unity among women.
