Governor Fubara also expressed gratitude to the Muslim community for its contributions to the peace, economic growth, and social harmony of Rivers State. <\/p>\n
According to him, the celebration of Eid Kabir should be a moment for all Muslims and non-Muslims alike, to reaffirm their commitment to peaceful coexistence, mutual respect, and collective progress. <\/p>\n
He enjoined them to ensure that diversity in faith does not become a source of division, but of strength to enhance peaceful coexistence. <\/p>\n
“As you gather with family, friends, and neighbours to share meals and offer prayers, I urge you to extend hands of kindness to the less privileged in our midst. <\/p>\n
Let the spirit of sacrifice that defines this festival inspire us to give more, forgive more, and love more.<\/p>\n
“On this sacred occasion, I pray that Almighty Allah accepts your sacrifices, forgives your shortcomings, and grants you and your families peace, good health, and abundant blessings. May the lessons of Eid-el Kabir guide us all as we work to make Rivers State and Nigeria a place of justice, prosperity, and unity for every citizen,” he said. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
