The Action Democratic Party (ADP) has called on the Muslim faithful to continually pray for the country and its leaders for better governance.

Yabagi Sani, the party’s national chairman, made the call on Monday to felicitate the Muslim faithful on Eid-el Kabir.

Mr Sani said prayer should be the only way to commit the hearts and wills of every leader to doing right and delivering on mandates.

“I urge us not to limit these acts of charity, love, and sacrifice to the celebration only but to let it be a culture to imbibe now and forever.

“I urge us to pray for a better tomorrow, and may our prayers bring succour and healing to our land.

“Let us continually pray for our leaders and our dear country for peace, love, understanding and prosperity,” he said.

He advised the Muslim faithful to remember the act of sacrifice in all their activities and ensure that they exhibit the same virtue to their fellow humans.

Mr Sani prayed for God’s blessings, peace and prosperity for all the Muslim faithful and citizens and wisdom for the country’s leaders.
