The President of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio, has extended his warmest greetings to the Muslim faithful in Nigeria, calling for compassion, forgiveness, and unity.
 
Akpabio, in a Sallah message signed by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Eseme Eyiboh, congratulated Muslims on the successful completion of the spiritual exercise of fasting, urging them to continue with the philanthropic practice of alms giving and love for one another.
   
He said: “This joyous celebration reminds us of the profound values of compassion, forgiveness, and unity that Eid-el-Fitr embodies. As you conclude this important exercise of fasting and spiritual reflection, be reminded of the importance of empathy, kindness, and generosity towards others, particularly the less privileged.
 
Akpabio prayed that the spirit of Eid inspires Muslims to cultivate compassion, promote understanding, and work towards a more just and harmonious Nigeria.
   
“On behalf of my family, constituents, the Senate, and indeed the 10th National Assembly, I sincerely wish President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and all Muslims a happy and blessed Eid celebration, and pray for peace, progress, and prosperity in Nigeria and globally.”
