President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has called on Nigerians to demonstrate greater care for their neighbours and to extend charity in the spirit of Eid-el-Kabir. Speaking to journalists after attending Eid-el-Kabir prayers in Lagos on Sunday, June 16, the President emphasized the importance of sacrifice for the nation's progress.
Addressing the media through his aide, Ajuri Ngelale, President Tinubu highlighted the Chief Imam's message on the necessity of sacrifice for the common good. "We have been told by the Chief Imam how we can follow the path of sacrifice," he said. "The sacrifice required of a good citizen. Citizenship comes with responsibilities."
He further elaborated on the duties of citizenship, stressing the need for commitment to society, love for the country, and compassion for one’s neighbours. "As citizens, what do we need to do to be committed members of our society? Yes, that is sacrifice; loving your country. Loving your neighbours. Sharing what you have with each other. And to always be thankful to Almighty God."
President Tinubu's remarks underscore the significance of Eid-el-Kabir as a time for reflection, unity, and the reaffirmation of communal bonds through acts of charity and sacrifice.
