Pastor Reuben Wilson, Founder of Pastor Reuben Initiative for Good Leadership and Accountability (PRIFGLA) and Governing Council Member of the University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, has extended his warm felicitations to Muslims in Nigeria and the diaspora on the occasion of the Eid-ul-Mawlid celebration.
In a statement, Pastor Wilson noted that the Eid-ul-Mawlid celebration, which marks the birth of Prophet Muhammad, is a significant occasion that calls for reflection on the profound virtues of peace, love, humility, tolerance, and compassion.
He urged Muslims across Nigeria, the Niger Delta, and Bayelsa State to use the celebration to foster the bond of unity, promote peaceful coexistence, and imbibe the Prophet’s teachings of mutual respect and selfless sacrificial service to humanity.
Pastor Wilson also urged Nigerians, irrespective of their faith, to fervently pray for peace, security, and stability in the country while supporting government developmental policies and programs aimed at transforming the lives of citizens and fostering development.
While wishing the Muslim community a joyous and peaceful Eid-ul-Mawlid celebration, Pastor Wilson enjoined them to be law-abiding.
