Fubara Felicitates With Muslims On Eid-El-Kabir Celebration

Rivers State governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has extended warm greetings and felicitations to all Muslim faithful in Rivers State and across Nigeria as they celebrate Eid-el-Kabir, the festival of sacrifice.

Fubara described the feast as a season that calls on everyone, irrespective of faith, to have deep reflection on the values of sacrifice, compassion, generosity, and unity.

The governor also expressed gratitude to the Muslim community for its contributions to the peace, economic growth, and social harmony of Rivers State.

According to him, the celebration of Eid-el-Kabir should be a moment for all Muslims and non-Muslims alike to reaffirm their commitment to peaceful coexistence, mutual respect, and collective progress.

He enjoined them to ensure that diversity in faith does not become a source of division, but of strength to enhance peaceful coexistence.

“As you gather with family, friends, and neighbours to share meals and offer prayers, I urge you to extend hands of kindness to the less privileged in our midst.

“Let the spirit of sacrifice that defines this festival inspire us to give more, forgive more, and love more. On this sacred occasion, I pray that Almighty Allah accepts your sacrifices, forgives your shortcomings, and grants you and your families peace, good health, and abundant blessings.

“May the lessons of Eid-el-Kabir guide us all as we work to make Rivers State and Nigeria a place of justice, prosperity, and unity for every citizen,” he said.
