Eid-el-Kabir: AA urges Muslims to pray for Nigeria’s peaceful co-existence

The National Chairman of Action Alliance (AA) Chief Adekunle Omo-Aje has enjoined Muslims to use the occasion of Eid-el-Kabir in praying for the ‘continuous corporate existence’ in Nigeria.

Chief Omo-Aje made the appeal in Abuja while speaking with newsmen on this year’s Eid-el-Kabir celebration.

The National Chairman of AA who expressed concern over the state of affairs in the country also advised them to use the celebration in praying for the peace and unity of the nation.

He said Eid-el-Kabir is a festival of sacrifice hence the need for them to contribute their quota to national development through patriotism and act of genuine sacrifice to their country.

Omo-Aje equally admonished religious leaders to always preach peaceful coexistence among their followers to enhance good neighbourhood and citizenry.

He used the occasion to call on President Muhammadu Buhari’s led administration to redouble its efforts in the task of combating banditry, kidnapping, boko haram and all forms of insecurity facing the country.

He further noted that no meaningful development could be achieved if the lives and property of the citizens were not adequately protected.

The National Chairman of AA explained that the party was committed to programmes that would improve the living standard of Nigerians irrespective of tribe or religion affiliation.

While felicitating with Muslims on the occasion of this year’s Eid-el-Kabir, Chief Adekunle Omo-Aje enjoined wealthy Muslims to use the period in putting smiles on the faces of the less privileged in the society.
