Sallah Celebration: NAWOJ Calls For Prayers, Unity Among Nigerians
The Nigeria Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ), has said that more than ever before, Nigeria at this critical point in time, needs divine intervention to overcome most of the challenges confronting and threatening its existence and unity.
NAWOJ in a statement congratulating Muslim faithful on the occasion of the Eid Mubarak celebration, said that it is therefore important for Muslims to use the occasion of the Eid fitri celebration to pray to God concerning most of the national issues for a peaceful and United Nigeria.
The statement signed by its National President, Comrade Ladi Bala, also appealed to Nigerians especially Muslims to imbibe the lessons of generosity in love, sacrifice and kindness as demonstrated by Prophet Mohammed (PBH).
The Association while thanking God for the spiritual ceremony, notes with concern the neglect of family values by many parents for the pursuit of wealth, hence the unacceptable negative behaviours in some children. NAWOJ therefore, appealed to parents particularly mothers to pay more attention to their children and wards by instilling the needed and proper values and fear of God in them for a better Nigeria.
The Association prayed God to release the blessings of Eid Mubarak upon all our Muslim ummah and lead Nigeria to a peaceful and successful 2023 General Elections.
