Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi, has charged Nigerian Muslims to use the Sallah period to seek Allah’s intervention in Nigeria’s situation.
Obi charged the people not to allow the prevailing unprecedented hardship in the country to affect their spirit of love, brotherliness and peaceful co-existence.
In a statement by his media aide, Valentine Obienyem in Awka, Anambra state, Obi said the people should use this year’s Eid-El-Fitr festivities to engender the spirit of oneness and also re-dedicate themselves to the virtues of love, patriotism and unity for the desired national development.
The former Anambra state Governor noted that the two major faiths – Christianity and Islam, coming out of their fasting period should allow the solemn moment of the holy months to influence their thoughts and actions in relating with one another and thinking about the future of the country.
Obi noted as discomforting the amount of blood being shed in this country on daily basis, pleading on Allah for prompt intervention.
