The Chief Imam of Benin Central Mosque, Sheik Abdulfatah Enabulele, has vowed to defend the Benin throne against aggressors and preserve its cultural heritage.
He gave the assurance when he led Muslim faithful to pay Eid-El-Fitr homage to Ewuare II, the Oba of Benin, in his palace in Benin City.
Enabulele assured the Oba that the Muslim community would not be involved in activities that could cause trouble in the state, knowing the implications.
“We will continue to do everything to guide this palace jealously so that the history of Benin Kingdom will continue to prosper,” he said while also congratulating Oba Ewuare II for his efforts.
Enabulele who spoke on behalf of the Muslim community in the state, prayed God to reward the sacrifices and protect the traditional ruler and his kingdom at all times.
