Governor Chukwuma Soludo has extended felicitations to Muslim faithful in Anambra State and across the country on the celebration of Eid-al-Fitr which marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan
Congratulating the Muslim faithful on the completion of the thirty-day fast, Governor Soludo stressed that the spiritual exercise had drawn them closer to Allah.
He urged Muslims and other Nigerians to live in peace, love and harmony with one another as brothers and sisters.
The Governor encouraged Nigerians not to lose hope, despite the difficulties and economic hardship in the country but charged them to live in peace with one another and continually pray for the country.
While noting that Ramadan was a season of discipline and sacrifice, the Governor urged them to celebrate with modesty and to remember the less-privileged amongst them.
According to the Governor, the holy month of Ramadan, no doubt, has drawn them closer to the Almighty Allah, saying that the period was one characterised by discipline, humility and love for fellow men and women, urging them not to depart from these noble principles.
The Governor also called on the Nigerian leaders irrespective of religion and denomination to draw from the lessons of the Ramadan in ensuring justice, equity and good governance to every citizen.
The Governor reminded his fellow leaders that leadership is a trust for which they would render account of their stewardship to God in the fullness of time.
He sued for peace among the component parts of the country, stressing that without peace, no meaningful development can take place.
