Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, has urged residents of the state to use the Eid-el-Kabir celebration period to pray for enduring peace, improved security and economic prosperity in Bauchi State and Nigeria.
Mohammed’s appeal was contained in a Sallah message issued on Wednesday through his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mukhtar Gidado, while felicitating with the Muslim Ummah in Bauchi State, Nigeria and across the world on the occasion of the 2026 Eid-el-Kabir celebration.
Eid-el-Kabir, also known as Eid al-Adha, is one of the most important festivals in Islam, commemorating Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his son in obedience to Allah’s command.
The festival symbolises faith, sacrifice, obedience, and devotion to God.
