Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed has called on Muslim ummah to imbibe the spirit of forgiveness, humility and respect for one another with a view to strengthen peaceful coexistence in the state.

In his Eid-el-Kabir message, the governor also urged them to fervently pray for the prevailing peace in the state to be sustained and for adequate rainfall so as to have a bumper harvest during this farming season.

The governor said, “We are not unmindful of the economic hardship being experienced by the generality of the people. This is a national problem which is being jointly addressed by the federal and state governments. I want to appeal to you to bear with the situation which is temporary.

“As a responsive and responsible government, we will continue to render palliative measures with a view to cushioning the effects of the hardship. I will however appeal to you to make some sacrifices to ensure that we overcome the hardship.”
