President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, has called on Nigerians to embrace compassion, forgiveness, and unity as Muslims across the country and the world celebrate Eid-el-Fitr.
Akpabio, in a congratulatory message issued on Thursday and signed by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Eseme Eyiboh, congratulated Muslim faithful on the successful completion of the Ramadan fast, urging them to sustain the spirit of almsgiving and love for one another.
“This joyous celebration reminds us of the profound values of compassion, forgiveness, and unity that Eid-el-Fitr embodies,” he said.

“May the spirit of Eid inspire us to cultivate compassion, promote understanding, and work towards a more just and harmonious Nigeria,” he added.
Akpabio also extended goodwill on behalf of his family, constituents, the Senate, and the 10th National Assembly, offering prayers for peace and prosperity in the country.
“On behalf of my family, constituents, the Senate, and indeed the 10th National Assembly, I sincerely wish Bola Ahmed Tinubu and all Muslims a happy and blessed Eid celebration, and pray for peace, progress, and prosperity in Nigeria and globally,” he said.
