Deputy President of the Senate, Ike Ekweremadu, has enjoined Nigerians to eschew all forms of recrimination and imbibe self-sacrifice, forgiveness and other higher virtues that promote national unity and development.
Ekweremadu made the call in his goodwill message to the Muslim Umah on the occasion of Eid el-Kabir today.
He said: “I congratulate our Muslim brethren on this occasion of Eid el-Kabir.
Th is season of conviviality presents another opportunity to reflect on our national challenges and the way forward.
“No nation realises its full potentials without equity, justice, unity, and peaceful coexistence.
I enjoin the Muslim Umah and indeed all of us to imbibe the virtues of sacrifice, forgiveness, and love that the season represents in order to move the nation forward.
” While also enjoining the Muslim Umah to cease the opportunity of the Sallah to recommit the nation into God’s hand, Ekweremadu wished the Muslim Ummah merry and hitch-free Eid el-Kabir celebrations.
