The Nigeria Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ) has called on muslim faithfuls in the country to us the celebration of Eid fitri and pray to God for a peaceful and United Nigeria.
Ladi Bala National President of NAWOJ in a message to the Muslim ummah on saturday, noted that the lessons of generosity in love, sacrifice and kindness demonstrated by Prophet Mohammed should be emulated by the muslims.
She congratulates Muslim faithful on the occasion of the Eid Muburak celebration and further challenged parents not to use quest for wealth and abandon their parental roles in their various homes.
“While thanking God for the spiritual ceremony, NAWOJ appeals to Nigerians especially Muslims to imbibe the lessons of generosity in love, sacrifice and kindness as demonstrated by Prophet Mohammed (PBH).
“The Association notes that Nigeria at this critical point more than ever before, needs divine intervention to overcome most of the challenges confronting and threatening its existence and unity.
“It is therefore important for Muslims to use the occasion of the Eid fitri celebration to pray to God concerning most of the national issues for a peaceful and United Nigeria.
“NAWOJ notes with concern the neglect of family values by many parents for the pursuit of wealth, hence the unacceptable negative behaviours in some children. NAWOJ therefore, appeal to parents particularly mothers to pay more attention to their children and wards by instilling the needed and proper values and fear of God in them for a better Nigeria.
“The Association equally pray God to release the blessings of Eid Muburak upon all our Muslim ummah and lead Nigeria to a peaceful and successful 2023 General Elections”.
