Senate President Ahmad Lawan has urged Muslim faithful to stress messages of peace, love and national unity as Ramadan begins Tuesday.

Lawan, in a statement by his spokesman, Ola Awoniyi, enjoined Muslims to remember Ramadan as a period of fasting, sober reflection, self-discipline and sacrifice.

“I urge us to remember our dear country in our prayers as we seek to overcome the challenges we are facing as a nation.

“This is in the realisation that Allah is the Almighty, kind and greater than all human problems.

“I enjoin us to stress the importance of peace, love, generosity and unity in our teachings during this sacred period.

“We should also not let down our guards in the observance of COVID-19 non-pharmaceutical protocols in our spiritual and other activities during the holy month,” he said.
