“This iconic mosque, a symbol of our rich Islamic history, has been transformed into a magnificent edifice that will serve as a beacon of faith and community for generations to come.
“The Imam Gambari Mosque, holds immense historical and spiritual significance for the people of Ilorin. Its complete overhaul, spearheaded by the Emir, reflects a deep understanding of the need to provide state-of-the-art facilities for worshippers while honouring the mosque’s foundational legacy.”
Alhaji Gobir further emphasised the broader impact of such projects on the socio-economic fabric of Ilorin, adding:.”These developments, initiated and supported by our respected Emir, and also our Governor, His Excellency, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, CON; are integral to the ‘Ilorin Renaissance’ movement, aiming to elevate our Emirate in all spheres of life.”
Gobir, who contributed handsomely towards the reconstruction of the mosque, expressed gratitude to Almighty Allah for granting him the grace to witness the completion of the mosque, describing it as “a symbol of faith, resilience, and unity for the Ilorin community”.
He also acknowledged the immense support of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, whose tenure has witnessed the realisation of this monumental landmark.
The event is expected to bring together religious leaders, traditional rulers, government officials, scholars, and members of the Ilorin community, who’ll gather in reverence and celebration of the mosque’s completion. The commissioning will feature special prayers, recitations from the Holy Qur’an, and goodwill messages, underscoring the importance of faith-inspired development.
