In his message to the Muslim community in Abuja on Sunday, in celebration of Eid-el Kabir, Okoh expressed warm felicitations on behalf of CAN.
“I celebrate with Muslims all over the world as they celebrate Eid-el Kabir, a festival symbolizing sacrifice, obedience, and faith.
I extend warm felicitations to our Muslim brothers and sisters,” he said.
Okoh urged all Nigerians to embrace the values of sacrifice, obedience, and faith in their daily lives, emphasizing the need to set aside differences and heed the call for unity and peace.
He highlighted that Nigeria is in dire need of God’s mercy, peace, and unity.
In his message, Okoh stressed the importance of love, forgiveness, and reconciliation in the face of current challenges.
He prayed for Divine intervention in the country’s security, economic, and political struggles.
“As the Muslim Ummah celebrate this festival, let us remember that our nation deeply needs God’s mercy, peace, and unity.
Let us work together to build a Nigeria where all citizens can thrive, regardless of religion, tribe, or creed.
Our diversity is in strength and togetherness, we can overcome any obstacle,” he emphasized.
