The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2023 elections, Atiku Abubakar, has felicitated with Muslims as Ramadan begins on Monday.
In his Ramadan message, which he shared on his official X account on Sunday, the former vice president called on Muslims nationwide to practice humility, forgiveness, and selflessness—all of which he described as core principles of the sacred month of Ramadan.
He said, “I enjoin the Muslim faithful in Nigeria to observe the month of Ramadan by seeking Allah’s mercy and forgiveness. Muslims worldwide, especially in Nigeria, should spend more time supplicating to God for His mercy on the country and on us as individuals.
“The month of Ramadan is a mercy from God upon humanity and all those who fast. For that reason, the Almighty also enjoins us to show more love to one another and deepen our charity in the holy month. As we enter this year’s Ramadan, we do so in a time of great hardship in our beloved Nigeria. This makes it all the more crucial for those who are able to extend their charity, surpassing the levels of previous years, as a testament to the strength of our faith and our commitment to one another.
“I urge every Muslim to be steadfast in the requirements of this holy month and pray that the Almighty Allah shall shower His mercy and blessings on Nigeria and guide the country to increased prosperity and peace during and after Ramadan. -AA”
