Lateef Adedimeji has been named Muslim Celebrity of the Year for the 2025 by Muslim News Nigeria, celebrating his professional excellence and unwavering commitment to Islamic values in the entertainment industry.
The announcement was made by the Publisher of the newspaper, Alhaji Rasheed Abubakar on Friday, November 14.
Abubakar noted that Adedimeji stood out among his peers for meeting the criteria set for the Award, which recognises Muslims making impactful contributions to society in their respective professions/careers while staying true and committed to their faith.
“Congratulations to our brother, Lateef Adedimeji, for this well-deserved Award,” the Publisher said, “It is a reminder that whatever we do, Allah sees us, even if we do not see Him. Likewise, people are watching us, even when we don’t realise it.”
He added that the honour is not only a recognition of Lateef’s admirable conduct but a responsibility to continue to serve as a role model, guided by Islamic principles.
“This Award should serve as motivation for other Muslim celebrities to proudly uphold the faith and abundantly display their Islamic identity,” he said. “As Allah tells us in the Qur’an, Muslims are the best community raised for mankind – to enjoin good and forbid evil. May this Award inspire more Muslims in the entertainment industry to live by that.”
