EID-MUBARAK CELEBRATIONS 2024: Reps Minority Sends Message To Muslim Faithfuls
For ourselves, our families and constituents, we join several well meaning Nigerians to felicitate with Muslim faithfuls, particularly those in Nigeria, on the occasion of this year’s Eid-Mubarak celebrations.
As a caucus, we are elated and most heartily rejoice with our Muslim brethren on this auspicious occasion which is celebrated globally.
We urge our Muslim brethren to continue to exhibit the spirit of tolerance, forgiveness, self-sacrifice, mutual love for one another, kind disposition, good neighbourliness and peaceful coexistence with others, as demonstrated by the Holy Prophet Mohammed (Peace Be Unto Him).
Clearly, this is a most difficult and challenging time for us as a people as our dear country continues to grapple with governance, sociopolitical and economic realities occasioned by unprecedented poor living conditions and invidious government policies. Indeed, our people are daily faced with realities of hunger, excruciating pain, poverty, several killings, abduction and kidnappings across the country. However, we hope and pray that this event will afford our muslim brethren the opportunity to continue to pray for the unity, peace and progress of our dear country, Nigeria.
We urge our Muslim faithfuls and all Nigerians to remain firm, steadfast and resolute in playing their respective parts in ensuring the rebirth of a truly secular, progressive and egalitarian Nigerian society of our dreams.
We are a resilient people and very confident that God is on our side and that we shall collectively triumph in the end.
Once again, congratulations and happy Eid-Mubarak celebrations to our Muslim brethren.
REP. O. K. CHINDA
Minority Leader,
House of Representatives, Nigeria.
