Eid-El-Kabir: Barau Calls For Unity, Support For Needy

Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Barau Jibrin has rejoiced with Muslims across the country on the occasion of Eid-el-Kabir and emphasised the importance of unity among citizens and supporting the needy in the society.

Barau, in a statement in Abuja on Thursday by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ismail Mudashir, urged Muslims and indeed all Nigerians, to use the occasion to pray for peace, unity, and the country’s progress.

Senator Barau who is also the First Deputy Speaker of the ECOWAS Parliament, called on Nigerians to continue praying for the well-being of the country and to offer their full support to President Bola Tinubu.

He noted that the President is genuinely working toward peace and the socio-economic prosperity of the nation.

“I wish Muslims, and indeed all Nigerians, a memorable Eid-El-Kabir. This season reminds us to obey Allah’s instructions, as exemplified by Prophet Ibrahim. True Muslims should adhere to peace, tolerance, justice, and charity.

“In the spirit of this season, irrespective of our faith, let us rededicate and commit ourselves to the dreams and aspirations of building a strong, united, and economically sound country.

“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has demonstrated strong leadership and genuine commitment in addressing our country’s challenges. Over the past two years, he has made considerable progress in tackling security issues and stimulating the economy. By the grace of God, the fruits of these efforts will benefit all. We are on the path to prosperity,” he said.

In order to consolidate the successes recorded under the current administration, Senator Barau assured that the National Assembly would continue to formulate necessary legislation to support the President in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda, designed to restore the country’s former glory.
