Walk Through The Dark Tunnel Is Over - Tinubu’s Eid Message To Nigerians by Kuginzi(op): 6:41pm On May 26

President Bola Tinubu has assured Nigerians that the country is emerging from difficult economic times.

The President declared that “the walk through the dark tunnel is over” as Muslims across the nation celebrate Eid-el-Kabir.

Tinubu made the declaration in a personally signed 2026 Eid-el-Kabir message.

The message, released on Tuesday, read:

“I extend warm felicitations to our Muslim brothers and sisters across Nigeria and worldwide as they celebrate the glorious Eid-el-Kabir, the Festival of Sacrifice.

"We give glory to Almighty God for preserving our lives to witness this important celebration once again.

“Eid-el-Kabir reminds us of the enduring virtues exemplified by Prophet Ibrahim—faith, obedience, and the willingness to sacrifice for a higher purpose. This sacred festival calls on all Muslims, and indeed all Nigerians and the whole of humanity, to embrace sacrifice, selflessness, unity, and compassion for our fellow human beings.

"One central lesson of Eid-el-Kabir is the call to show mercy and compassion, regardless of race, ethnicity, or creed. There is no greater example of duty and devotion than Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness to offer his only son, Ismail, as a sacrifice to Allah.

"As a nation, we are on a journey of reconstruction and renewal. The reforms we have undertaken are challenging but necessary to build a stronger and more prosperous Nigeria for future generations.

“Just as sacrifice brings reward, I am happy that the sacrifices and efforts we have made over the past three years have yielded a more stable economy, making our country a preferred investment destination that will drive job creation and economic growth. The walk through the dark tunnel is over, and the light is here.

“I am confident that, by the Grace of God, the reforms we have diligently pursued will continue to yield improved security and greater opportunities for all.

"I am aware that, despite the best efforts of our security and intelligence agencies—including the recent elimination of a wanted ISIS leader—heartless terrorists and bandits still attack some communities. I assure you: you are neither abandoned nor forgotten. We will ultimately defeat all the forces of evil.

“To our Muslim faithful, I urge you to use this sacred occasion to pray for our country, for peace in our communities, and for wisdom for those in leadership.

“Let us pray that those who commit crimes among us may rethink and abandon their evil ways, or face the full weight of the law.

"Let us also reach out to the less privileged, share with our neighbours, and strengthen the bonds of brotherhood that unite us as one people.

“My administration remains committed to building a Nigeria where all citizens can live in peace, worship freely, and pursue their dreams without fear.

“We will continue to invest in security, infrastructure, agriculture, and human capital to fulfil the great promise of our great nation.

"On behalf of the government, I wish you all a peaceful, joyous, and blessed Eid al-Kabir. May Allah accept our sacrifices and prayers, and may He continue to bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“Eid Mubarak! Happy Sallah!”

Really?
The children held up in the valley of the shadow of death don't matter?

And you say these are responsible leaders?

So is he saying we'll wake up tomorrow and fuel we'll be back to N87 or rice back to N8000 or dollar back to 197?
Or what exactly is this empty rhetoric for

Tinubu has now resorted to teasing Nigerians and making a joke of the hardships and deaths his policies have subjected Nigerians to.

Hallelujah and Amen to all the prayers. However, action speaks louder than words. Tinubu is that why the blood of Nigerians are being sacrificed for bloody terrorists? What compassion have you shown across Nigeria towards the victims of insurgency your APC brought?
