President Muhammadu Buhari has facilitated with all Muslims faithfuls all over the world, especially Nigerians, on the occasion of the Maulud Un Nabiyy, the birthday of Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
A statement by the senior special assistant to the president (media and publicity), Garba Shehu, disclosed that the president said,
I am delighted to send greetings of peace, unity and goodwill to the Muslim Ummah, fellow citizens and Muslims all over the world as they observe and celebrate Eid-ul- Maulud.
The President urges Muslims to strive for "forgiveness and closeness to the noble life and teachings of the Prophet (SAW) whose birthday is being marked on this blessed day. On this auspicious occasion, I wish you all the blessings of today."
He uses the occasion to give a snapshot of the increased activities the Armed Forces, Police Force, and intelligence agencies have embarked upon to effectively respond to the security challenges in the nation.
President Buhari said, the government fully expects and intends for these trends to continue, and calls on the media to address the tone, content, and standards of reporting into security and safety measures. Time has come to revise the prefixes “rising insecurity” with “declining insecurity.”
He noted that the increased cooperation and collaboration between citizens and security agencies has helped the administration score more victories against terror, criminality and economic sabotage.
He called on Nigerians to help the security agencies and operatives in the discharge of their duties, so as to achieve a safer country.
President Buhari also appealed to road users to drive with caution and avoid needless accidents.
