Emma Eneukwu, deputy national chairman (South) of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has urged Nigerians to appreciate President Bola Tinubu’s willingness to sacrifice for the good of all.

“The spirit of willingness to sacrifice as exhibited by President Tinubu is for the overall interest of the country,” Mr Eneukwu said on Wednesday in Enugu in his Eid-el-Kabir message to Nigerians.

The APC stalwart added, As we all know, this event is one that is used to honour the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his sons as an act of obedience to God’s command. It is a moment where togetherness, love, sacrifice and commitment to unity are always observed, and I am very happy to celebrate this year with my Muslim brothers, friends and associates.”

Mr Eneukwu urged Nigerians to “inculcate the spirit of unity by using this period to reflect on the importance of having a united Nigeria, where the country’s interest would always top our priorities.”

According to him, the country now has a president who is always committed to fostering policies that will engender progress and prosperity for all Nigerians in different sectors of human endeavours.

“We have a president that is in high spirit to capitalise on the progress made by his predecessor and work assiduously to make our dear nation a habitable and prosperous place for all,” he explained.

Mr Eneukwu assured Nigerians that they would never regret supporting the ruling APC during the 2023 general elections and all its candidates across the nation, especially Mr Tinubu.

“This great and timely decision will later turn out to be the best decision we have so far made as a nation,” he stressed.
