The IGP charges all Muslim faithfuls to use this moment to preach and promote peace, unity, and tolerance within our diverse society, and as well, be beacons of hope and understanding, fostering goodwill among all Nigerians.


May this Eid bring blessings, joy, and prosperity to our homes, and may our nation continue to thrive in peace and unity.


Eid Mubarak!
