The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) has congratulated the Muslim Ummah on the occasion of this year’s Eid-el-Kabir celebrations.
In a message in Abuja, the party enjoined Muslims to imbibe the virtues of love, sacrifice and tolerance which the occasion signifies.
“NNPP urges Muslim faithful, indeed, all Nigerians to pray for peace, unity, justice, equity, progress and prosperity of the nation as we grapple with the task of building a strong, virile, stable and just democratic society.
“The state of the nation is bad and calls for patriotism by all Nigerians to confront multifarious challenges bedeviling the country.
“The forthcoming general election provides another opportunity for Nigerians to take their destiny in their hands and elect competent, credible, vibrant, resourceful, purposeful, visionary and God-fearing leaders who will deliver dividends of democracy that will uplift the people’s standards of living, not carnage as obtainable today.
“NNPP urges eligible voters to take advantage of the extension of the INEC voter registration to register and obtain their permanent voter cards, and ensure they vote for New Nigeria People’s Party candidates in all elections.
“This is the first step in actualizing a new Nigeria we all desire and deserve in accordance with Section 14(2)b of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999, as amended, which provides that the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government.
The outgoing All Progressives Congress-led Federal Government has woefully failed to protect the territorial integrity of Nigeria, playing to the gallery while the nation burns and Nigeria turns to the poverty capital of the world.
The deplorable situation of our beloved country calls for a new Nigeria which the New Nigeria People’s Party is ready to provide if voted into office in 2023 elections.
“As preparations for the crucial general election continue, NNPP holds all Nigerians and all geopolitical zones in high esteem as fellow compatriots in the task of building a better society. The party will canvass votes from all geopolitical zones to win 2023 presidential election as we have millions of supporters across the country.”
