While charging the Muslim community in the state to support programmes and policies initiated by the Otu administration, he called for selflessness, love, unity, forgiveness of one another, peace and sacrifice.

 

“With Otu, we are sure of econmic revival which he had always been known for right from the period when he served the state as Senator, he had always been known for initiating humanitarian programmes.

 

“He had proven his mettle when he represented the people of Cross River South as Senator at the National Assembly. His empowerement programme was second to none,” he stated.

 

Giving an insight into what the Eid-el-Kabir festival is all about, Uba stated that the festival usually celebrated with prayers offered on the Eid prayer ground, is usually followed by slaughter of goats, sheep and cattle in commemoration of Prophet Abraham’s readiness to sacrifice his son to show obedience to Allah.

 

“In Islamic parlance, it’s most important feast in the Islamic calendar because it is an occasion where willingness of Prophet Ibrahim to sacrifice his son, Isma’il, in submission to Allah’s command.

 

“In commemoration of this intervention, an animal, usually, a ram, is sacrificed ritually and divided into three parts.

 

“One share is given to the poor and needy, another is kept for home and the third portion is given to relatives,” he explained.
