Minister of works David Umahi has called on Nigerians to reflect on the significance of Eid-el- Kabir and the reinforcing values of sacrifice, gratitude, charity and compassion and unity among one another.
Umahi made the disclosure when the Muslim community in Ebonyi State paid him a Sallah homage in his residence in Abakaliki, the state capital.
He commended the sense of unity and love among the Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba communities who are Muslim faithful in Ebonyi and charged them to continue to support and pray for the Renewed Hope administration of President Bola Tinubu.
He said Tinubu is working assiduously to return the country to the part of honour and glory.
Umahi also urged them to continue to support the administration of the state governor, Francis Nwifuru, who he said has remained inclusive and steadfast in the discharge of his People’s Charter of Needs.
The minister said, “President Tinubu is trying very much to help this country. We know that things are hard. And if he doesn’t do what he’s doing, in the future, we may not have a country called Nigeria. So, the much his disciples can help, they try to help.
“That’s why I rushed home, so that I will join my government to assist you to buy food to celebrate. I want you to pray for Mr. President and our governor. In Ebonyi State, there’s no discrimination, whether Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba or other tribes. We are one people,” he said.
