Happy Maulid to all Muslims in advance! I truly appreciate this hols

This holiday was nonexistent ten years ago no thanks to Shekarau who pioneered it for Kano state, now it's at federal level, no thanks too to Yaradua.
BTW this isn't authentic Islamic holiday, it was invented less than 500 years ago. So am not celebrating jack about it.
