As Muslims in Gombe State join other faithful across the world to mark the commencement of the Islamic New Year 1443 AH, Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya of Gombe State has urged Muslims to use the period to reflect on their past deeds and recommit themselves to the Almighty Allah and the country.
In a congratulatory message, Governor Yahaya described the Islamic New Year as significant in the life of Muslims, calling on them to use the occasion to offer prayers for the peace, growth, and prosperity of the state and Nigeria.
“We, therefore, must use the opportunity, especially in the sacred month of Muharram and beyond, to pray fervently for our dear state and the nation as well as for those in authority at all levels as we collectively fight to tackle the threat of insecurity and other socio-economic challenges facing us today”, Governor Inuwa admonished.
