President Bola Tinubu has extended his Eid-el-Fitr greetings to Muslims across Nigeria, urging them to carry the lessons of Ramadan into their daily lives.
In a statement on Thursday signed by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, the President encouraged Nigerian Muslims to renew their dedication to the nation and humanity as they mark the end of the holy month.
Tinubu called on the faithful to rededicate themselves to the teachings of Ramadan, which highlight values such as piety, empathy, and unity among people.
“We have a lot to draw from the noble lessons of Ramadan, especially at a time like this. We must continue to abide by the virtues of piety, selflessness, perseverance, kindness and compassion beyond this period,” he said.
