Tinubu To Muslim Faithful: Dedicate Maulud Holiday To Pray For Nigeria
President Bola Tinubu on Sunday, September 15, 2024, urged Muslim faithful in the country to dedicate the Maulud holiday to pray for the country and show empathy and compassion toward one another.
This was contained in a message of goodwill and congratulations he sent to Nigerian Muslims on this year’s commemoration of the Maulud Nabiy, the birthday of Prophet Muhammad.
A statement by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, said the President urged Muslims to use the period for deep reflection and remembrance of the Holy Prophet’s exemplary conduct and noble teachings.
Tinubu said; “As we mark the Maulud, we should all reflect on the life lived by Prophet Muhammad, exemplified by purity, selflessness, perseverance, kindness and compassion. We must endeavour to imbibe those virtues”.
