Vice President Kashim Shettima has urged Nigerians to continue praying for peace, unity and mutual understanding as the country gradually enters another political season.

Shettima made the call shortly after observing the Eid-el-Kabir prayers at the Ramat Square Eid Ground in Maiduguri, Borno State, on Wednesday.

“Our message to Nigerians is to continue praying for peace and for mutual understanding amongst all Nigerians.

“And as we enter the political phase, there is a need for maturity, forbearance, and generosity of spirit in our political interactions,” the Vice President said.
