In a statement to mark the auspicious occasion, Inuwa Yahaya urged the Muslim community to draw inspiration from the Prophet’s teachings of service, peaceful co-existence, and exemplary leadership.
The Governor emphasized the importance of embodying the values of tolerance, humility, modesty, and generosity, all of which were exemplified by the life and teachings of Prophet Muhammad (SAW).
He remarked, “As we commemorate this great day, let us continue to emulate the noble messenger of Allah in our actions, interactions, and relationships for the betterment of our society.”
