GOVERNOR ROCHAS OKOROCHA'S GOODWILL MESSAGE TO MUSLIMS AT EID-EL-KABIR

As Muslims celebrate the Eid-El-Kabir, the governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha has urged Muslims in the country to use the period to pray more than they had never done in the past for the nation and her leaders so that the nation's greatness would emerge from her current challenges.

Governor Okorocha said, nations all over the world that have achieved greatness had passed through the crucibles to achieve that feat and that Nigerians should see the challenges facing the nation at the moment as the nation's march to greatness.

The governor explained that no nation, be it Britain, America, China, France, Germany and so on, had achieved greatness or nationhood on a platter of gold without making sacrifices and dealing with some challenges.

He then advised Nigerians to begin to see light at the end of the nation's tunnel both economically and politically, and instead of complaining, Nigerians should declare development, growth and prosperity for the nation and her people.

According to the governor, this is not the right time to begin to apportion blame for any reason, even when one could be forced to contend that those who had held sway before now refused or failed to work or save for the rainy day.

He said with the emphasis on agriculture at every nook and cranny of the nation at the moment, who knows whether the time for the nation to go back to agriculture and play down on oil has come.

The governor wishes President Mohammadu Buhari and all the Muslims in the country especially those in Imo State a hitch free Eid-El-Kabir.

He assured the Muslims in the state that Imo people would continue to live in peace with them as it has been the case.
