Senators Opeyemi Bamidele (APC Ekiti Central) and Sani Musa (APC Niger East), have felicitated with Nigerians on Eid – el – Kabir celebration .
The two Senators in separate messages of goodwill to Nigerians, urged them to imbibe the good virtues inherent in the celebration and support the present President Bola Ahmed Tinubu led administration .
Specifically, Senator Bamidele in his Sallah message said : ” I congratulate all Muslim Ummar on the occasion of the Eid-el-Kabir. As we celebrate, let us remember that we have a duty to make this country safe and prosperous for all of us and this can only be accomplished with unanimity of purpose and convergence of thoughts and ideas.
“President Tinubu came with the popular mantra of a Renewed Hope and this has started manifesting by the deft political steps he had taken to mend the already cracked and widened ethnic and religious faultlines.
“This manifested in the way he supported Senator Godswill Akpabio to emerge the Senate President and magnanimously ceded the Secretary to the Government of the Federation slot to Christians to balance the Muslim-Muslim ticket at the presidency.
“All the President needed from all Nigerians as the father of the nation, is coalition of efforts with him for the realization of his promise to bring prosperity to the doorstep of every Nigerian, which will impact our lives positively, irrespective of religious leanings.
“I appreciate the profound and pivotal contributions of our Muslim brothers to the stability of this nation. They should continue in this stead; for it is an onerous task they have to perform as adherents of Prophet Mohammad(SWT), whose entire life preaches love, togetherness and propagation of the ideal of live and let live”.
Senator Sani Musa in his own message said : ” I seize this opportunity to rejoice with you all on the occasion of the celebration of this year’s eid Kabir the feast of sacrifice. I pray almighty Allah will accept our sacrifices.
“I admonish you to as you celebrate remember those who are less privileged by supporting them to celebrate and have a spirit of belonging.
” I am aware that the last few weeks have been periods of uncertainty, fears and series of attacks by bandits and gunmen which have made life very unbearable for a lot of our people, resulting also in their inability to perform their fundamental rights to freedom as enshrined in our constitution and apart from losing their loved ones some were maimed.
“However I assure you that the government is on top of the situation as President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has shown the capacity to tackle the mirades of problems facing many parts of the country.
“The appointment of new service chiefs and the Inspector General of Police I am sure will soon add impetus to the fight against insecurity in parts of our state and the country in general.
“As we celebrate this Eid kabir I charge you to continue to have faith in the governments at state and federal levels and pray for continued peace and progress of our leaders, state and country”.
