Let love of Ramadan live in our hearts, Peter Obi urges Muslims
The 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has prayed for Nigerian Muslims to continue to allow the love and spirit of Ramadan to guide their ways.
The former governor of Anambra made the call on Sunday in his 2025 Eid-el-Fitr congratulatory message to felicitate the Muslim faithful on his X handle.
“It is our earnest prayer that Almighty Allah will accept our prayers, fasting, and supplications now and always.
“It was indeed very fulfilling for me to break the Ramadan fasts with different Muslim communities across the nation.
“Sharing our blessings and joys with one another is not just an act of Ramadan but should form part of our everyday lives.
“We pray that the blessings and lessons of Ramadan will forever remain and abide with us – that love will live in our hearts, that peace and unity will flourish in our nation,” Mr Obi said.
Mr Obi prayed that the security of lives and property would again be celebrated within the nation’s borders and that Nigeria will experience more growth and development.
“Once again, I congratulate our Muslim brothers and sisters for completing the Ramadan.
“May the blessings of Almighty Allah remain with you and your families now and always. Eid Mubarak,” he said.
