Gov. Buni calls for prayers for peaceful coexis­tence in Nigeria

As Ni­geria prepares for change of leadership, Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni, has urged citizens to fervently pray for a successful and peaceful transition and for unity among citizens.

The governor made the statement when congratulating Christians on the occasion of the 2023 Easter celebration.

“The good lessons of love and sacrifice should be used to promote peace and uni­ty for the prosperity of the country and Nigerians,” he said.

The governor noted that this is a blessed period when Christian faithful observe the Easter and a time when their Muslim brothers are observing the Ramadan fast.

“It is, therefore, a great op­portunity for us as a nation to take advantage of this period to pray for our country,” Gov­ernor Buni advised.

The governor called on religious and community leaders to always preach peace and peaceful coexis­tence.

“We can only practice our religions and achieve prosperity when we have peace. Some few years back, we could not go to mosques and churches in Yobe State due to security challenges
“But today, we glorify God for the peace we now enjoy across the state. We should, therefore, guard it jealously and avoid anything that could tamper with peace and security in Yobe State and Nigeria,” he advised.
