As the Muslim holy month of Ramadan winds to an end, leading ride-hailing company, <a href="http://bolt.eu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bolt</a>, on Monday night, hosted an Iftar dinner in honour of Muslims operating on its platform. This was revealed in a press statement seen by Technext. The company said the initiative was intended to bolster love, inclusion, and community awareness among its members. 
The Iftar dinner took place at the Barcelona Hotel in Abuja. Imam Mansur Abubakar led prayers before guests then gathered together to break their fast with bespoke menus.&nbsp;Although it was an Iftar dinner, Christian drivers appear to have been invited to the event as both sets of drivers feasted together following prayers. 
A Muslim driver, Hamza Uthman expressed his elation at enjoying the Iftar dinner with his Christian fellow drivers as it was in consonance with the spirit of the holy month. 
“We are happy to break our fast with our Christian brothers and sisters. This is what Ramadan is about – uniting people. Thanks to Bolt for this great idea,” he said.
