My greetings to all Nigerian Muslims and our brother Christians on the occasion of Eid-el-Fitr: may the lessons of Ramadan namely; piety, self-denial, prayers and generosity to the poor and needy be with us for all time.

“I, again, appeal to all Nigerians to avoid reckless statements or actions against our fellow countrymen. We should all resolve to live in peace and unity in our great country, which is the envy of many less endowed nations. Happy Eid-el-Fitr.”
