As Muslims all around the world celebrate Eid el-kabir, president Muhammadu Buhari is not left out.
The president who left the presidential villa yesterday evening for his hometown in Daura, Katina to celebrate the Muslim festival has also slaughtered his rams to mark the eid el-kabir ritual.
Buhari, earlier in his Sallah message, urged Muslims to take this time to remember the submission of Prophet Allaisis-Sallam. He also urged all Nigerians to rise above personal, sectarian or group interest in dealing with themselves. He wrote:
Eid-ul-Adha offers an opportunity to remember the submission of Prophet Ibrahim Alaihis-Salam to Allah, by which he taught the world the value of sacrifice in relating with one another.

We must imbibe this lesson and make it a duty to sacrifice for others and to always remember those who are less fortunate than ourselves. Selfishness, greed and corruption have no place in our lives and in our dealings with one another.

I felicitate with all Nigerians, particularly the Muslim faithful, on this year’s celebration. I assure you all that our administration will not rest or relent as we work to build the Nigeria of our dreams—secure, prosperous and free from the ravages of corruption.
