The Party urged Nigerians to use the occasion to reinforce their hope in the Almighty Allah for direction as well as care for one another especially at this critical time when millions of citizens have been subjected to misery, hopelessness and utter destitution as a result of bad governance by the APC.

“Eid-el Maulud, the celebration of the birth of the Holy Prophet Mohammed (SAW), offers humanity and indeed our nation, especially leaders at all levels, the rare opportunity to retrace our steps and submit to the will of the Almighty Allah in all our dealings as exemplified in the life and teachings of the Holy Prophet.”
“The opposition party encouraged Nigerians to stay calm and hopeful and to use Eid-el Maulud as a time to show love to one another while earnestly praying for divine guidance in the nation’s affairs.
“Furthermore, the PDP charges the Federal Government to end profligates, curb corruption, be more sensitive in prioritizing the need of the citizens by channelling resources to projects and programmes that have a direct bearing on the welfare of Nigerians.”
