This sacred festival of sacrifice teaches us the enduring values of obedience, faith, selflessness, unity, and commitment to the greater good of humanity.
“As our Muslim brothers and sisters commemorate this important occasion, I encourage them to extend the spirit of sacrifice in their patriotism to our great nation by continuing to support the economic reforms and developmental initiatives of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“Though the journey may demand patience and resilience, collective sacrifice and national unity remain essential to building a stronger, more prosperous, and inclusive Nigeria for present and future generations.
“I wish everyone a peaceful, joyful, and blessed Eid el Kabir celebration.”
