The Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ike Ekweremadu has congratulated the Muslim Umah on the successful conclusion of the Ramadan Fast.
This was contained in an Eid-El Fitri message to the Umah.
Senator Ekweremadu urged the Muslim Umah to carry over the lessons and virtues imbibed during the holy month of Ramadan to every aspect of their lives in order to move the nation forward.
“We are blessed as a nation for having religious and cultural orientations that teach us to place general good above personal interest, forgive and reconcile when we are hurt, show love and kindness to all, live holy, and to be our brother’s keeper.
“I have no doubt whatsoever that we will get to the Promise Land sooner than expected if only we will put these virtuous orientations and injunctions to work and emulate the lives of the holy prophets”.
While also wishing the Muslim Umah a hitch-free Ed-El Fitri celebration, Senator Ekweremadu called on them and all Nigerians to use the occasion to pray for the peace, unity, and development of Nigeria.
