OWUTU FM 2026 Ramadan Lecture: Sheikh Jamiu Asanbe Urges Muslims to Avoid Showboating in Worship
OWUTU FM 2026 Ramadan Lecture: Sheikh Jamiu Asanbe Urges Muslims to Avoid Showboating in Worship.
The Chief Imam of Agelete Central Mosque, Ikoyi Lagos, Alhaji Jamiu Asanbe, has urged Muslims to remain sincere in their acts of worship and avoid the temptation of seeking public praise for good deeds.
The respected Islamic scholar gave this admonition while delivering a lecture at the OWUTU FM 2026 Ramadan Lecture, held on Saturday, February 28, 2026, in Lagos.
Speaking on the importance of sincerity in Islam, Sheikh Asanbe cautioned Muslim faithful against what he described as “showboating” — the practice of performing charitable acts or religious duties merely to gain recognition or admiration from others.
According to him, every act of worship in Islam must be done purely for the sake of Almighty Allah.
He explained that while acts such as prayer, fasting, and charity are fundamental pillars of faith, their true value lies in the intention behind them.
The cleric therefore encouraged Muslims to remain genuine in their devotion and avoid mixing their faith with the desire for worldly praise or attention.
Sheikh Asanbe also reminded the faithful that the holy month of Ramadan presents a unique opportunity for spiritual renewal. He urged believers to increase acts of generosity, particularly by supporting the needy, vulnerable members of society, and orphans.
Earlier in her remarks, the Convener of the Ramadan Lecture and CEO of OWUTU FM, Hajia Adejoke Muyibat Balogun, encouraged attendees to use the sacred month as a time for reflection, self-improvement, and community development.
She described the lecture theme as carefully selected to promote spirituality, strengthen faith, and encourage peaceful coexistence within the community.
Balogun expressed appreciation to the numerous guests and supporters who attended the event, noting that their presence reflected the strong bond within the community.
She further reaffirmed OWUTU FM’s commitment to sustaining the annual Ramadan Lecture, praying for Allah’s continued guidance and mercy in the years ahead.
The 2026 edition of the Ramadan Lecture attracted dignitaries and representatives from various organisations including Uzamot Communications, Okutex Fabrics, and the Yeye Asiwaju of Ojota Kingdom.
The event also featured engaging activities such as a quiz competition, where winners were presented with gifts. In the spirit of Ramadan, iftar meals were shared with guests, reinforcing the values of unity, generosity, and compassion that define the holy month.
Through initiatives like this, OWUTU FM continues to play a vital role in promoting faith-based dialogue, community engagement, and social harmony.

Ajadi Picks APM Senate Nomination Form, Declares Readiness for Oyo Central Contest
The political atmosphere at the Oyo State Secretariat of Allied Peoples’ Movement (APM) came alive on Monday as Olufemi Ajadi Oguntoyinbo officially picked the party’s nomination form to contest for the Oyo Central Senatorial District seat, amid cheers from party members, supporters, and political associates who thronged the venue.
The event, held in Ibadan, was marked by songs, chants, and displays of solidarity as supporters described Ajadi’s entry into the senatorial race as a major boost for the party ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Addressing journalists shortly after obtaining the nomination form, Ajadi said his decision to join the race was driven by a desire to offer purposeful representation and impactful leadership to the people of Oyo Central.
“I have answered the call of my people and my party. Today marks the beginning of a renewed political journey aimed at giving the good people of Oyo Central quality representation, responsive governance, and a voice that will be heard clearly at the National Assembly,” he said.
He added that his aspiration was not merely about occupying political office, but about creating opportunities for youths, empowering women, and advocating policies that would improve infrastructure, education, and economic growth in the district.
Speaking on the party’s prospects in the forthcoming elections, Ajadi expressed confidence that the APM would record significant victories in Oyo State and beyond.
“By the grace of God and with the support of the people, APM will win the presidential election, produce the next governor of Oyo State, and secure victories in the senatorial, House of Representatives, and State Assembly elections. Our party is growing stronger daily, and Nigerians are ready for a credible alternative,” he said.
Supporters at the event described Ajadi’s declaration as a significant moment for the party, expressing confidence that his grassroots popularity and philanthropic activities would strengthen the APM’s chances in the elections.
Ajadi, a businessman, philanthropist, and prominent political figure in Oyo State, has remained active in Nigeria’s political landscape through advocacy for youth inclusion in governance and democratic reforms.
Political observers said his formal entry into the senatorial race could alter the dynamics of political competition in Oyo Central, a district considered strategic in Oyo State politics because of its voting strength and influence.
