Nigerians of all faiths have been urged to pray fervently that the predictions of doom, hardship, political instability and religious intolerance will not come to fruition.
The former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, who is currently recuperating from a recent successful surgery, sent this message to all Nigerians as Muslims across the country mark the end of Ramadan.
While wishing all Muslims Eid Mubarak and happy Sallah celebrations, Tinubu urged that Muslims must not stop praying and fasting for Nigeria because Ramadan was over, warning that danger lies ahead for Nigeria.
He said: “As our country continues its search for an equilibrium – politically, economically and in terms of religious harmony, men of God and their followers must never stop to offer prayers.
“The Ramadan period was another opportunity for Muslims to pay penitence, but most importantly pray for the peace and progress of Nigeria.
“Nigeria needs prayers but also good leaders.”
Tinubu urged Nigerians to work for the good of the nation and prayed that very soon, leaders with vision, vigour and vibrant capacity will be voted into office to lead Nigeria onto the right path.
He added: “Nigeria is not a broken case.
“It is redeemable and only the people can make this change happen by voting right and wisely.”
