The statement quoted the Interior Minister, Rauf Aregbsola, as congratulating Muslim faithful and all Nigerians both at home and abroad on the occasion.
“He called on the Muslims to continue to imbibe the spirit of love, peace, kindness and sacrifice, as exemplified by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon Him) and to also use the period to pray for peace, unity, prosperity and stability of the country especially as the world is witnessing global health challenges caused by COVID-19 pandemic,” the statement read in part.
