Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, has called on Nigerians, especially the adherents of the Islamic faith, to use the opportunity provided by the Holy month of Ramadan to intensify prayers for peace, unity and stability of the country.
In a message to commemorate the start of the Ramadan fast issued by his spokesman, Malam Imam Imam, Tambuwal appealed to the citizenry to prioritise the plight of the needy by spending from their wealth so as to ease the pain suffered by the people.
He said by taking care of the poor, the vulnerable and the less-privileged, the society is doing itself lots of favours.
The Governor said the holy month provides opportunity for increased worship, strengthening of family ties and doing away with bad habits.
“We should use this period to love one another and make sacrifices for the overall growth and development of our nation,” Tambuwal added.
He equally called for the cooperation of all stakeholders in Sokoto State as his administration works to develop critical sectors for the benefit of the people.
