President Muhammadu Buhari has urged Nigerians to rise above personal, group, sectarian and other interests, and promote harmony and tolerance in dealing with one another at all times.
In his Sallah message, President Buhari urged all Muslims to use the occasion for sober reflection and self-examination, and strive to be good ambassadors of their religion by upholding high moral values
He reminded Muslims that this felicitous occasion of Eid-ul-Adha is a remembrance of the submission of Prophet Ibrahim Allaihis-Salam to Allah, his Creator, by which he taught the world the value of sacrifice in relating with one another, and when it comes to nation-building.
“We must sacrifice for others and remember always those who are less fortunate than ourselves,” the president declared.
Mr Buhari explained that religion is a major factor in influencing human behaviour towards good conduct and actions.
He, however, regretted that selfishness, greed and corruption have overwhelmed human souls to the extent that people abandon their religious beliefs in pursuit of their greed.
The president stressed that fighting corruption is a task that must be done in order to protect the larger interests of the ordinary Nigerians who are the worst victims of diseases, poverty, malnutrition and other afflictions.
He said surrendering to corruption is not an option because it destroys society and progress of nations.
According to President Buhari, “Even if some people hate you for fighting corruption, you should not chicken out from the task as a leader because doing so is a betrayal of public trust.”

On the current economic challenges facing Nigerians, the president reassured that such are temporary because the welfare of the people is the main thrust of the change agenda of the administration.

To buttress this point, Mr Buhari cited the many initiatives unfolded by the administration under the Social Investment Programme (SIP) among which was the recent decision to distribute recovered stolen funds to the poor against the past practices of re-looting such funds by some people in authority.

The one you dey promote Abi


Just continue


Last last, you win 2019 general election


And everything go still be vanity upon vanity Come 2023

But on a second note, 70% of Nigerian populations are youth

Many of which are below the age of 40

We need old leaders to rule over us and always put us in check

As for me, I can never vote in an aspirant that's not above 55 years of age

But I still cannot vote in an aspirant that's above the age of 75

The goal is to vote in an old leader and not to elect a grandpa

Not to talk of one that wasn't schooled

Even if it's just an informal education

You have divided Nigeria beyond repair when you started with the 97% speech


All hail the divider in chief and slicky sales man from the North

You should practice what you preach

Hypocrite...

Your 97% and 5% statement will forever hunt you

some times I wonder how Nigerians vote for this iiletrate old man.to be their leader
in trump voice
this is a sh**t hole country

Buhari's definition of 'avoid division' is support me blindly even if I send Fulani herdsmen and the military to kill your people

GOD BLESS OUR PRESIDENT .
Our Darling Handsome Bobo!

Mohomodu Buhary, a good man with bad intentions

happy sallah

baba you are number one agent of division right now!

.

Useless hypocrite
You preach peace as if you understand what it is

Ogbeni Buhari u know peace...Nonsense

The Satan of Katsina himself.

Useless hypocrite
You preach peace as if you understand what it is

Nazo. Kase uto ayem.. Letit be

Hypocrite
I can see how your 97% and 5% statement have United Nigerians
How his demonic herdsmen from Libya are working to build a good nation
Nonessential at its peak

#In division i stand?

I hear you Sir, by 97% and 5% formula

And how are you championing what you preach You started your administration with a divisive speech when you said "97%" and "5%".

By keeping quiet when Fulani herdsmen kill with reckless abandon (I think their sponsors have asked them to stop killings so that your reputation would not be stained further since next year is election).

By arresting peaceful protesters and term some (like IPOB) terrorists, but allow killer herdsmen to roam free?
Your government said that farmers-herdmen clash is communal issue and later, said that Fulani herdsmen are foreigners -implying that you can't protect Nigerians from alien invasion.

By bullying those checkmating your style of governance by arrests but keep silent on individuals and organisations such as MURIC spew speeches which can further deepen hatred?

If you had condemned Fulani Herdsmen when they started, the killings wouldnt have been this bad.


I pray that this country elects LEADERS not the rulers we have always had and still have.


In the committee of nations, we are still in 1984 while even countries like Rwanda are ahead.

Buhari and peace should not b mention in d same sentence

Until he is able to show by action that the life of every Nigerian is important then I will begin to believe him.
Until he understands that Nepotism is also corruption then I will begin to believe him.
Until he shows transparency in dealing with Nigerians then I will begin to believe him
Until he follows the rule law, then I will believe him

Who divides Nigeria more than the President? But i tell you, God knows how to reward such hypocritical evil doer.

This bloodthirsty tyrant is asking for peace yet the only peace the middlebelt has seen is because elections are coming and they don't want to cause Buhari trouble with the killings destabilizing his government.

This evil man who thinks it's more effective to kill or jail, then to teach and help.

God shows so much mercy to the wicked. Some time I just don't understand.

Sallah kill u there

Embrace wetin?? Oga no lie u like other people apart from ur brothers?

This fool should watch his mouth, after tearing the country to pieces and dividing us with hunger, unemployment, tyranny, dictatorship, nepotism, blood shed, wickedness, etc.., he's here regurgitating and blabbing about peace.

He should just keep shut and crawl back to his shell if he has nothing sensible to say.

A very wicked dullard
