The National Chairman of the PDP, Prince Uche Secondus, has asked
Nigerian Muslims to use the solemn period of Sallah to present Nigeria’s
precarious situation to Allah for his prompt intervention. Prince
Secondus, in a Sallah message yesterday by his Special Adviser on Media,
Ike Abonyi, said poor leadership was threatening the existence and
survival of the nation.
The PDP leader said, “Only justice and
fairness, the type only God gives can rescue Nigeria from imminent
collapse.” Secondus added that, “The blood of thousands of innocent
souls being wasted daily in our land should be enough mitigation to
plead to God to save this country from destruction.
“Nigerians
should also use the period to offer fervent prayers for the unity and
stability of the nation which is seriously under threat due to poor
leadership.” He explained that intense prayer for the country had become
necessary more than ever before, adding that the nation was in dire
need of divine intervention to survive.
“We know as a fact that
this is not what Nigerians desire from democracy, especially given what
happened on February 23, 2019. But a period like this solemn time
provides the people an opportunity to ask Allah to allow the will of the
people to prevail. “It is a statement of fact that this is one of the
worst times in our history as a country where lives are valueless and
freedom denied to persons holding opposite views in a national discourse
by an obviously intolerant political leadership.
“I charge you
not to allow the challenges of now make you lose your dignity and
modesty as a people and miss the essence and meaning of the Eid-el-Kabir
festivity and the divine succour it brings, in assuring us that there
is always a light at the end of every tunnel.”
