A Nollywood actor turned politician, Hon. Funke Adesiyan, has joined the Muslim faithfuls in celebrating this year’s Eid-el-Kabir and enjoined them to be safety cautious and peaceful in their celebrations.
The Personal Assistant to the President on Domestic and Social Events stated that as the Muslims obeys the great prophet, they should be careful not to jeopadize their safety as COVID-19 is real.
She wrote:
“A good life does not come out of nowhere. It is created by humility, patience, sacrifice and prayers.
“I rejoice with my fellow Muslims across the globe, particularly my constituents from Oyo state, as we celebrate this Eid-el-Kabir faithfully today. May joy and love envelop us all this season.
“As we celebrate, i enjoin us to be more keen on peaceful coexistence, tolerance and unity. Our humanity as a people should not be compromised at any point. For it is only true unity that we can move forward as a state and nation by extension, irrespective of religious and tribal affiliations.”
While appreciating Allah for the opportunity to see another Eid-el-Kabir celebration, Adeshina reminded Nigerians to place priority on safety as they celebrate.
“Remember to stay safe as you celebrate, COVID-19 is not a hoax.
“Barka De Sallah,” she concluded.
