Suleja Emirate Council has commended Stanel Group and its Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Dr Stanley Uzochukwu, for constant invitation to host and identifying with the Suleja Emirate Council, especially during Ramadan fast.
The Emir of Suleja, Malam Mohamed Awal Ibrahim, made the commendation through the District Head of Abisenyi, Alhassan Salihu Zuba, at Stanel Station, Suleja branch on Thursday.
He acknowledged that Stanel had made it a culture to host and break Ramadan fast with the Muslim community annually since the commissioning of the branch in Suleja.
“Our people are happy that a non Muslim is feeding thousands of Muslim faithful during Ramadan fast annually and we will continue to co-exist peacefully while praying for his business success in the land”, he added.

A member of the community, Bala Mohamed, who is the Director General, Administration, Suleja Emirate Council, also said, “We have been together with Stanel for sometimes now. They are the supplier of diesel in the Emir Palace before the price of diesel hiked from about N400 to almost N900 and the Palace decided to go for Solar.
“We appreciate the magnanimity of Suleja Stanel branch to its host community. It has become a household name in Suleja because of their giving and they are always ready to give. Our appreciation to Stanel is endless.”

“I am very excited seeing Stanel organising this important and rewarding gathering of Muslim community to identify and break Ramadan fast with them. This is worthy of emulation!”
The General Manager of Stanel, Suleja branch, Favour Ojionweya, speaking on behalf of the Group CEO, said: “For us here in Stanel, it’s about the impact but not the money.
