Inuwa Waya noted that it is imperative for Muslim faithful to utilize this period to pray fervently for peace and unity in the country.

“We have just ended a month long fast thus paving way for the Eid-el-fitr celebrations. These two periods are such times that the Almighty Allah enjoined us to ask for his blessings. We should therefore seize the opportunity to pray for the country and its leaders,” Inuwa said.

“Eid-El-fitr is a time of love and goodwill. It gives us a message to love all and hate none,” he added.

He enjoined the people of Kano State and nigeria to sustain the lessons of Ramadan and replicate same in their daily lives for a better society.

He also called on Muslims not to be carried away by only the pageantry of the Sallah celebration, but to use the occasion for sober reflection and extend gestures and hands of support to the needy in the society .

Inuwa emphasized the importance of peace, unity and tolerance amongst the diverse people of the country for the envisaged growth and development to take place, noting that the heterogeneity of Nigeria should be a source of strength rather than conflict.

“As you join the rest of the Ummah all over the world to celebrate this year’s Eid el-Fitr, marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan,  I  enjoin you to replicate and demonstrate in your daily lives the lessons and virtues of sacrifice, forgiveness, piety, self-denial and genuine love towards one another which you learnt during the month- long fast”.
