President Bola Tinubu has ordered the distribution of rice across Nigeria for Christians and Muslims during Ramadan and Lent.
CAN requested the governor to restore government sponsorship of Christian pilgrimage to Jerusalem, which had been suspended since 2015.
Mr Adeleke said the adjustment was intended to support workers during the fasting season.
Abdul-Azeez Adediran (Jandor), the lead visioner of the Lagos4Lagos Movement, says Ramadan and Lent remind citizens of their shared duty to build a caring society.
“If our leaders emulate Christ, we will not hear about electoral malpractice or manipulation,” said the Catholic priest.
The governor described it as both divine and strategic that Muslims and Christians began their 2026 fasting on the same day.
The retreat daily anchored by different resource persons, ignited the faithful spiritually as fervent supplications were made to atone sins and halt national challenges.
“We should fast and pray to seek the mercy and favour of God, not just fasting from food but from wicked acts.”
