Minister Abubakar Momoh Graces Qur’anic Recitation In Honour Of Tinubu’s Late Mother — A Powerful Tribute Of Faith And Unity(Video)

The Honourable Minister of Regional Development, Engr. Abubakar Momoh FNSE, was among the high-profile dignitaries who graced the grand finale of the Qur’anic Recitation Competition held in Kano to honour the late Alhaja Abibatu Mogaji, mother of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Held on Saturday, the event drew Islamic scholars, clerics, and community leaders from across the country — but it was the Minister’s presence and remarks that resonated deeply with both the audience and the organizers.

Hon. Momoh, known for his deep respect for cultural values and spiritual unity, described the late Alhaja Mogaji as “a pillar of faith, commerce, and compassion whose legacy continues to inspire generations.” He praised the initiative led by Senator Basheer Lado for using the Qur’an as a tool to not only honour the past but strengthen the moral compass of the youth.

The Minister noted that the values exemplified by the late matriarch — integrity, community service, and faith in God — align deeply with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Tinubu. He reaffirmed the commitment of the Ministry of Regional Development to supporting initiatives that unite communities through faith, education, and shared values.

The competition, which saw over 4,400 participants from all 44 LGAs of Kano State, culminated in a spiritual atmosphere of devotion and harmony. International judges from Algeria and Egypt’s Al-Azhar University oversaw the recitations, adding prestige and credibility to the event.

Engr. Momoh’s attendance was more than ceremonial — it was symbolic of a federal presence that values tradition, honours family, and encourages the spiritual growth of the nation’s youth. His message was clear: development is not only physical; it is spiritual, moral, and generational.
