Sallah: PDP Governors Harps On Peaceful Coexistence

The People’s Democratic Party Governors’ Forum (PDP-GF) has enjoined Nigerians to continue to coexist peacefully.

This is contained in a congratulatory message signed by the director general of the forum, Dr. Emmanuel Agbo to the Muslim Ummah on the completion of the Ramadan fast which culminated in the Eid-el-Fitr celebration.

The governors tasked Nigerians to get involved in the process of peacebuilding to get the country to work for the good of all citizens.

The statement read in parts: “The completion of the month-long Ramadan fast which heralded and culminated in the Eid-el-Fitr celebration, provided a period for Muslims to reflect on the lessons of tolerance, love, and sacrifice that the celebration typifies.

“The Forum felicitates with Muslims from across the world for the dawn of another Eid-il-Fitr and prays that the Almighty Allah would accept their worship and keep them all alive and healthy to witness many more.

“And though the Ramadan season is over, we urge all Muslim faithful to continue to practice the lessons taught by the Holy Month by remaining pious and close to Allah and denying themselves in total submission to His will, not forgetting that as one of the key pillars of Islam, the Ramadan was important for developing the virtues of self-renunciation in every true Muslim.

“The Forum equally calls on all Nigerians to continue to live together harmoniously, coexist peacefully, and dedicate this period of celebration to remain relentless in their prayers and support for its leaders, peace, security, and unity of our dear country; even as we advocate that all Nigerians should get involved in the process of peacebuilding to get the country to work for the good of all citizens.”
