Wike To Nigerians On Eid-el-Maulud: Pray For Tinubu’s Success

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has urged Nigerians, particularly residents of the FCT, to use the occasion of Eid-el-Maulud to pray for the success of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Wike, in his goodwill message to mark the birth of Prophet Muhammad, appreciated the President’s support for the FCT Administration and his commitment to the development of the nation’s capital.

He said such prayers would further strengthen the administration’s efforts in uplifting the people and improving their quality of life.

The Minister reaffirmed the FCT Administration’s commitment to expanding infrastructure, enhancing medical care, strengthening emergency response, and ensuring security for both residents and visitors.

He also urged residents to meet their civic obligations by obeying traffic rules, paying taxes, and supporting government programs that promote social cohesion, economic growth, and environmental sustainability.

While commending the diverse communities in the FCT for their commitment to peace and harmony, Wike expressed appreciation to law enforcement agencies, healthcare workers, and essential service providers for their sacrifices in keeping the city safe and functional.

He described Eid-el-Maulud as a moment to reflect on the Prophet’s teachings of peace, compassion, and unity, adding that the values of love and kindness must continue to guide social interactions.

“May this Eid-el-Maulud bring you and your families peace, prosperity, and happiness. Let us strive to emulate the virtues of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in our daily lives, fostering a society where everyone thrives in peace and security,” Wike said.
