Dambazau called on Muslim faithful to align themselves with the prophet’s teachings which border on piety, charity, tolerance and peaceful co-existence, among others. He equally called on all Nigerians to uphold these virtues with a view to overcoming the current national challenges facing the country.

He wishes all Nigerians a joyous and peaceful Eid-El Maulud.
