Sallah: APC chieftain urges Muslims to pray for Nigeria’s progress
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Osun State, Dotun Babayemi, has urged Muslims to keep praying for the development of the country as they celebrate this year’s Eid-el-Kabir.
Mr Babayemi stated this on Saturday in Osogbo in a congratulatory message to Muslims on this year’s Eid-el-Kabir celebration.
The APC chieftain urged Nigerians not to be discouraged by the current economic situation in the country.
He said, “Despite some challenges facing the country, it remains one of the best in the world. Nigeria is blessed abundantly with human and material resources and remains one of the few nations so blessed in the world.’’
Mr Babayemi, however, enjoined Muslims to keep praying for the growth and development of the country.
Commending Nigerians for their patriotism which had kept the nation going, he appealed that they should not relent in working and praying for the continuous growth of the country.
“We must not quit supplicating to our creator; for He is the one that answers prayers. We must, at this time, continue to put in more efforts at our various points of duty for the development of all sectors in the country,” he said.
