Tinubu
By JAMIU JAMODU
President Bola Tinubu, on Friday in Lagos, urged citizens to continue embodying the lessons of patience, tolerance, and neighbourliness drawn from the seasons of Ramadan and Lent as a foundation for nation-building.
The President, who spoke to reporters after the Eid-el-Fitr prayers at the Dodan Barrack, said the bedrock of development lies in peaceful and harmonious coexistence.
“I pray for peace in the country. The stability, peace and security of the nation is not just one man’s responsibility. We are all involved. Report suspicious movements of people across the length and breadth of the country. These are our responsibilities too,’’ he said.
President Tinubu said the spiritual emphasis on charity and kindness to others should go beyond the fasting period.
“We give thanks to God for guiding us through the month of Ramadan. We have accepted the principles, philosophy and doctrine of giving, peace, security and love of our nation, and of neighbours, and kindness to all humanity in any way we can.
“We should assist the needy and help the vulnerable. That is the teaching. May God accept our sacrifices.
“We must continue not because Ramadan has come and it’s over. We thank almighty God for giving us that month. But the teaching must continue even after Ramadan. We must continue to be our brother’s keeper. Good behaviour, good neighbours, and love for humanity”.
