MAJORITY LEADER PLATEAU STATE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY URGES NIGERIANS TO PLACE HUMANITY ABOVE ANY FORM OF ADVERSITY

EID-El FITRI CELEBRATION:
MAJORITY LEADER OF THE PLATEAU STATE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY URGES NIGERIANS TO PLACE HUMANITY ABOVE ANY FORM OF ADVERSITY.

MAY 13th 2021.

The Majority Leader of the Plateau State House of Assembly, Hon. Na'anlong Gapyil Daniel has congratulated Muslim Ummah on the occasion of the 2021 Eid-el Fitri celebration and urged them to use the festive period to reflect on the deep spiritual significance of humanity, above any form of adversity.

Hon. Na'anlong Daniel admonished all faithful to allow the lessons learnt during the spiritual exercise of faith through, self-cleansing, discipline, dedication and sacrifice to reflect in their endavours and dealings with fellow men towards engendering peaceful co-existence to aid national development.

The Majority Leader in a statement further enjoined all Muslims to imbibe and sustain the teachings of the month-long fasting period by being committed to national unity.

“The nation’s current challenges could be surmountable through fervent prayers and patriotic belief in the oneness of Nigeria.

The several activities of Ramadan; daily Tefsirs, Tahjuds, Ramadan Lectures and Laylatul Quadri programmes amongst others should effect the desired change in our daily dealings with ourselves as a people.

Let’s place humanity first, banditry, kidnapping, crimes and other vices have no place in any religion.

Hence, this year’s Eid-el-Fitri celebration should be a period to reflect on the deep spiritual significance of humanity, above any form of challenges,” he counseled.


Once Again Happy Eid-El Fitri Celebration.
Signed:

Hon. Na'anlong Gapyil Daniel.
Majority Leader Plateau State House of Assembly and Member Representing Mikang Constituency.

By Justin Jattim  A non-profit organization dedicated to the empowerment, education, and economic upliftment of vulnerable women and youth impacted by banditry, kidnapping, and insurgency in Nigeria, the Scarlet Cord Initiative, has extended its work to Gumel in Kachia, southern Kaduna.

These women shared the experience of losing their husbands to violent attacks. This was not a craft lesson, but the opening act of a profound tra...
