Tinubu Calls for Unity and Rule of Law on Eid-el-Kabir
During the Eid-el-Kabir celebrations at Dodan Barracks in Lagos, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu urged Nigerians to embrace unity and obedience to the rule of law.

Tinubu stressed the importance of tolerance and adherence to religious teachings as foundational to peace in society. He condemned violence, banditry, and hate speech, asserting that no religion condones such actions.
Sheikh Sulaimon Abou Nolla, the Grand Chief Imam of Lagos State, echoed Tinubu's sentiments, calling for Nigerians to embrace sacrifice, generosity, and service to humanity.
