The call was made by the Bauchi State Governor, Sen Bala Mohammed Abdulkadir in his Sallah message to the people of Bauchi State stressing that the religion of Islam propagates total submission to the will of Allah (SWT) and peaceful coexistence with our fellow human beings. We should also use the Eid-el-Kabir occasion to strengthen the existing interpersonal relationship and create new ones. The Governor also said that “I call on our people to bear with us on this serious Health situation. As a responsible Government, we will continue to render palliative measures with a view to cushioning the effects of the hardships. As Muslims, we should emulate this unprecedented act of sacrifice as a sign of obedience to Allah (SWT), through the observance of Eid prayers, animals sacrifice, charity and festive meals”.
