Addressing the country's security and economic concerns, President Tinubu called for sustained national prayers against the pervasive security threats and socioeconomic afflictions impacting various parts of the federation.
President Bola Tinubu has charged Muslim faithful across Nigeria to make deliberate efforts to adhere to the exemplary teachings and virtues of Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) as the nation celebrates this year's Eid-el-Maulud.
In a statement issued on Tuesday by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, the President stressed that the annual commemoration should serve as a period for deep spiritual introspection, prayer, and devotion rather than mere festivities.
"The Muslim faithful should make deliberate effort to adhere to the teachings of Prophet Muhammad," Tinubu stated. "There are great lessons of devotion, perseverance, tolerance, humility and selflessness that we can all learn from the life of the Prophet."
The President called on Islamic religious leaders to utilise the Maulud period to offer prayers for the nation’s peace and stability, while admonishing their followers to translate the Prophet's values into active civic commitment toward national development.
