President Bola Ahmed Tinubu emphasized the importance of sacrifice in advancing the nation as he addressed journalists after participating in Eid-el-Kabir prayers in Lagos.
His remarks echoed the theme articulated by the Chief Imam of Lagos during the sermon.
“We have been advised by the Chief Imam on the essence of sacrifice and its significance for every good citizen. Citizenship entails responsibilities. As citizens, what must we do to contribute meaningfully to our society? It begins with sacrifice – love for our country, compassion for our neighbors, sharing our resources, and perpetual gratitude to the Almighty,” President Tinubu stated.
Tinubu’s call for sacrifice aligns with the spirit of Eid, encouraging Nigerians to reflect on their duties towards national development and communal harmony.
