Eid-el-Fitr: Ribadu Seeks Citizens’ Support To Tackle Insecurity 

The National Security Adviser (NSA) Mallam Nuhu Ribadu has called on Nigerians in the spirit of Ramadan support the security agencies in the fight against threats to national security.

Ribadu in a message felicitating with Muslims on the occasion of Eid-el-Fitr said the sacred period embodies the virtues of resilience, discipline, and sacrifice and urged them to bring to bear these virtues in the nation’s collective efforts to strengthen national security.

“Your cooperation in the fight against terrorism and other threats remains vital in ensuring peace and stability across our Nation, particularly in our commitment to a ‘whole-of-government and whole-of-society approach.’ Therefore, the continued collaboration between the government, religious leaders, communities, and security agencies in combating terrorism and extremism remains paramount,” he said.

He stated further that the celebration of Eid-el-Fitr serves as a moment for deep reflection, gratitude, and a renewed commitment to peace and national unity. “It is thus pertinent for Muslims and all Nigerians to come together in unity, embracing the core principles of love and togetherness that are essential for our national progress. Peace, unity, and compassion are the core values underpinning the true spirit of Eid-el-Fitr; therefore, Nigerians must continue to uphold the virtues of empathy, kindness, and tolerance during the festivities and beyond.

“I appeal to all Nigerians to remain vigilant against any forces that threaten our peace, and together, we can build a Nigeria where all citizens, irrespective of their faith, can live in harmony and prosperity.
