The Northern Senators Forum has extended heartfelt greetings to Muslim brothers and sisters at home and across the globe, as faithful mark the conclusion of Ramadan and celebrate Eid-el-Fitr, the Festival of Fast-Breaking.
Senator Abdulaziz Musa Yar’Adua, the
Chairman of the Forum made this known to journalists on behalf of the forum.
Yar’Adua prayed Allah (SWT) to accept faithful’s acts of worship and to continue to safeguard Nigeria as Nigerians bask in the blessings of the sacred occasion.
“Let us persist in our endeavors to foster a peaceful and cohesive society that cherishes the principles of liberty, human dignity, and prosperity for all.
“It is incumbent upon us collectively to offer prayers for our dear President, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR, and the leadership of our nation at every echelon as we strive to enhance our national fortunes and uplift the standard of living for all Nigerians,” he said.
Yar’Adua extended his warm congratulations to His Eminence, the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar, the President-General of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA), and all Muslim organisations and Muslim brethren for observing a month of Ramadan devoted to peace and spirituality, culminating in the joyous occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr.
“As we transit from the holy month of Ramadan, let us embody the virtues that we have cultivated during this period. Let us emulate the spirit of brotherhood, extend individual and communal support, contribute to nation-building, offer prayers for the welfare of our country and its leadership, abide by the laws of the land, and uphold exemplary conduct and the overarching values of Ramadan.
“Furthermore, let us be reminded of our collective obligation to combat injustice, immorality, unfairness, corruption, and inequality. Let us champion justice, patriotism, and dignity in all our pursuits. Remember, no situation lasts forever, and by fulfilling our respective roles effectively, we can propel our nation towards a brighter future.”
