President Bola Tinubu has called on Nigerians to love the country and support her leaders.
Tinubu made the call on the occasion of the Eid El-Fitri celebrations across the country.
Tinubu joined the Muslim faithful at the Dodan Barracks in Ikoyi, Lagos, to observe the Eid prayer, and urged Nigerians to defend the integrity of the country.
“The kind of resilience, sacrifice, endurance that we have, we should preserve that for the country. Be a kind and cheerful giver, love our country better than any other country – that is the only one that we have.
“And we must continue to protect the integrity of our government and leadership. The new hope is alive, well and fine and Nigerians should continue to be very hopeful. Without hope there is no salvation, without hope, there is no development, without hope, there is no life,” Tinubu told journalists on his way out of the prayer ground.
Earlier, while leading the prayer session at the Dodan barracks praying ground, the Grand Chief Imam of Lagos, Sheik Sulaiman Nolla, said fasting had great blessings.
