On the occasion of this year’s Eid-el-Fitr, which marks the end of Ramadan, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, has enjoined Muslims and indeed all Nigerians, to remain resolute in their abiding faith in God, through prayers and sacrifice, as the nation battles to contain the spread of the novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19).

In a statement, Gov. Ugwuanyi, who congratulated President Muhammadu Buhari and other Muslim faithful on the successful completion of Ramadan, added that the religious exercise will go a long way in the nation’s collective efforts to winning the war against COVID-19 as well as sustain the peace, unity and progress of the country.

While wishing all Muslims a pleasant celebration, the governor urged Nigerians to stay safe, remain steadfast in prayers and continue to love and cherish one another.

“This is an unusual time, not only for us as a people but for the entire humanity and the world. I therefore urge that we remain committed to the core values that strengthen the bond that brought us together as a prosperous nation, as we fight back in solidarity and in determined effort to contain this COVID-19 pandemic”, Gov. Ugwuanyi said.

Seems this my incompetent governor is a shareholder on Nairaland...any thing with Ugwuanyi hits front page with a speed of light.

Or is NL part of the places he's wasting our money instead of building rural roads that are impassable during rainy season?

63% of Enugu people are Muslims and they inter marry with Muslims... especially their women and men.

I watched BBC documentary and it was a confirmed truth.

Ugwuanyi is wishing Indigeneous Muslims in his state Happy Eid el fitr.....not necessarily other Muslims.
