The President, who arrived the prayer ground before 9 am,
was received by top government officials, religious leaders, and dignitaries
that gathered in large numbers for the solemn occasion.
Among those who were at the prayer ground were Vice
President Kashim Shettima; the Deputy Senate President, Barau Jibrin; and the
National Security Adviser, NSA, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu.
Eid-el-Fitr, one of Islam’s most significant festivals,
symbolizes the conclusion of Ramadan and is traditionally marked by prayers,
acts of charity, and expressions of communal harmony.
Following the prayer session, President Tinubu is scheduled
to host a Sallah homage at the presidential villa later in the day, continuing
the spirit of celebration and unity associated with the festival.
