Sallah: Onaiwu sues for peace and sacrifice

The candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in the 2016 Governorship Election in Edo State, Earl Osaro Onaiwu has called on Muslims in the State to pray for the emancipation of Edo State from the scourge of bad leadership that has affected its progress since 1999.

The governorship candidate made the call in a Sallah message signed by one of his media aides, Mr. Christopher Okagbare to mark this year’s Eid-El-Kabir celebrations across the state. He said the State has been plagued with the menace of self serving leaders which has plunged the state into a critical economic situation. He called on the Muslim community in Edo State to come together and play an active role in rescuing and building a better Edo State where development will thrive.

Mr. Onaiwu commended Muslims in the state for living in harmony with their Christian brothers and sisters. He asked the Muslim Umrah in Edo State to consolidate on the prevailing peace they have maintained in the state over the years, even as the governorship election approaches.

Mr. Onaiwu further called on Muslims to imbibe the virtues of Prophet Ibrahim in the Holy Quran who was prepared to sacrifice his son for the love of Allah, he asked Muslims in the state to make sacrifices for peace to reign in Edo.
