Again, the family of the late Alhaji Kafaru Oluwole Tinubu brought together conscious Muslims in and outside Lagos State to be fed with spiritual diets during this year’s memorial Ramadan lecture held on Sunday, March 26, 2023 at the popular De Blue Roof, LTV, Ikeja, Lagos.
The occasion, in its 14th edition and chaired by Alhaji Wahab Babatunde Dabiri Makanjuola, Chairman, Academy Press, was organised in honour of the late police boss to literally take Muslims faithful on a voyage around the blessings of Ramaddan under a convivial environment.
The organizers’ choice of the two lecturers – Dr. Saheed Timihen, Head of Arabic Unit, Department of Foreign Languages Lagos State University, Ojo, Lagos who spoke on Governance and Social Justice: Islamic Perspective- and Dr. Ganiyat Tijjani Adenle, Senior Lecturer Lagos State University, Ojo Lagos, she spoke on The Societal Impacts of Cultural Imperialism on Decadence: Islamic Alternatives and Panacea– was generally applauded by the excited audience.
The first speaker Dr. Timihen spoke extensively on governance and government while he advised those in power to rule with the fear of Allah in their minds also enjoined the followers to do their parts very well so our society will be at peace.
Dr. Adenle on her own chastised our youths and also advised parents to train their children on the way that will please Allah.
