The Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), has congratulated the Muslim Ummah on the successful completion of the Holy Ramadan fasting urging Nigerians to allow the divine lessons, values of love, unity, peace, patience, tolerance, restraint, and total submission to the Will of the Almighty Allah among other virtues imbibed during the period to guide their daily dealings with one another.
According to a statement from the Party,
“Our Party urges Nigerians, especially those in leadership positions at all levels to re-dedicate themselves to the path of selfless service guided by love, truth, fairness, honesty, and impartiality in all their activities and put away acts of corruption, arrogance, manipulation, and insensitivity to the plight of the people.
“Indeed, the Eid-el-Fitr offers us as a nation and humanity the divine portal to redeem our nation by standing up for justice, strict adherence to the Rule of Law, and accountability in the polity.
“The PDP is deeply disturbed that while citizens of other countries are celebrating the Eid-el-Fitr in plenty, Nigerians are dampened in spirit due to the unbearable hardship occasioned by the misrule of the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration which has worsened in the last two years.
“Our Party, however, charges Nigerians not to relent but continue to apply the lessons of Ramadan in recharging their resilience, focus, and love for one another in the pursuit of a God-fearing, secure, and prosperous nation that we once had under the PDP administration”, the Party said.
PDP called on Nigerians to use the occasion as usual to reach out, uplift, and share especially the less, privileged, the displaced, and those who are hurting due to one misfortune or the other so that the joy of Eid-el-Fitr can spread to all
The Party says as always they will continue to pray for the nation and wishes Nigerians, especially the Muslim Ummah a happy Eid-el-Fitr celebration.
