By Olawale Lamina
The National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda has congratulated the Muslim brothers and sisters in the country on the celebration of this year’s Eid el-Kabir, describing the occasion as a sacred festival of faith, sacrifice, obedience, love and devotion to Allah. He called on the muslim communities in the country to support ongoing reforms of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
In a statement by the Special Adviser to the National Chairman of APC on Media and Information Strategy, Abimbola Tooki, a copy of which was shared with The Pinnacle Times on Tuesday, Professor Yilwatda noted that Eid el-Kabir remains one of the most significant celebrations in Islam, symbolising the virtues of selflessness, unity, compassion, tolerance and total submission to the will of God, as exemplified by Prophet Ibrahim.
Yilwatda emphasized that the spiritual lessons of the celebration are highly relevant to Nigeria at this critical stage of national development, stressing that sacrifice, patience, perseverance and collective responsibility are essential ingredients needed to build a stronger, more united and prosperous nation.
He urged Nigerians, particularly the Muslim Ummah, to continue to promote peaceful coexistence, national unity and harmony across ethnic, religious and political lines, adding that the Sallah celebration should further strengthen the bonds of love, understanding and brotherhood among citizens.
Professor Yilwatda also called on the Muslim community and Nigerians at large to continue to support the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and its ongoing reforms aimed at repositioning the country for sustainable economic growth, improved infrastructure, national security, job creation and long-term prosperity.
According to him, while the reforms may require patience and shared sacrifice, they are necessary steps towards restoring economic stability, strengthening institutions and securing a brighter future for generations yet unborn.
The APC National Chairman expressed confidence that under the leadership of President Tinubu, Nigeria will emerge stronger, more resilient and economically competitive among the comity of nations.
He appealed to Nigerians to use the Eid celebration to offer fervent prayers for the peace, unity, security and progress of the country, as well as for wisdom and divine guidance for leaders at all levels.
Professor Yilwatda prayed that Allah accepts the sacrifices, supplications and acts of worship of all the faithful, and grants every family peace, joy, good health and abundant blessings during and after the celebration.
He wished all Muslim faithful across Nigeria and beyond a peaceful, prosperous and memorable Eid el-Kabir celebration.
