The Governor wished all Muslim faithful across the country happy Eld-el-Kabir urging them to always emulate the lifestyle of Prophet Mohammed and stressing that Prophet Mohammed symbolised peace and tolerance.
He prayed for peace and wisdom in solving the challenges facing the nation, especially the insecurity, and urged all Muslim Faithfuls in the state to remain peaceful as they join their counterparts all over the world to celebrate Eid-el-Kabir.
