The President-elect of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has expressed his readiness to make Nigeria a better place by leading the charge to do what is right.

CityNews Nigeria reports the President-elect made his mind known in a statement on Thursday issued to celebrate the 2023 Eid-el-Fitri to mark the end of this year’s Ramadan fast.
The former Lagos State Governor said the country is poised for a better, greater, and more prosperous country and he stands ready to walk with all Nigerians, young and old, male and female, with this opportunity to serve in honour and dignity.
He added that the commitment to serve is one he has made and cannot afford to fail.
The statement wishes all Muslims in Nigeria and beyond happy Sallah celebration.
Below is the full statement: “We thank Munificent Allah for the grace to witness this year’s Eid-el-fitri celebration after the Holy Month of Ramadan.
“For Muslims in our country and all over the world, Ramadan is a sacred spiritual obligation as one of the five pillars of Islam. With the help of Almighty Allah, we have gone through a period of abstinence, self-discipline, self-reflection, self-purification in gratitude andtotal submission to the will of Allah.
“We have engaged in fervent prayers and supplications to Allah.
“Beyond the self-abnegation and pious living that the fasting period imposed on us, the spiritual excercise we just concluded has also helped us to improve on our moral character, refine our minds in pursuit of higherideals for which there should be no turning back.
“At the heart of our faith and a major demand on all faithful is the requirement to commit ourselves to wholesome living. This entails love for one another, love for fellow humans regardless of creed, region and ethnicity, love for our communities and love for country.
“To love one another, have compassion, empathy and love our beloved country means we must become better citizens in line with the teachings of Prophet Muhammed.
“We must constantly seek to become a better version of ourselves in patriotism, dedication to duty and honesty. We must also never be weary of doing what is right, fair and just to all.
“We are at the dawn of a Renewed Hope for a better, greater and a more prosperous Nigeria and I stand ready to walk with all Nigerians, young and old, male and female, with this opportunity to serve you in honour and dignity. This is a commitment that I have made and one in which we cannot afford to fail.
“I wish all Muslims in Nigeria and beyond happy Sallah celebration.”
