Eid-El-Maulud: Northern Govs Charge Muslims To Live In Love
The Northern Governors Forum has congratulated Muslims in Nigeria on the occasion of Eid-el- Maulud, charging them to live in love.
The chairman of the forum and governor of Plateau, Simon Lalong, felicitated with the Muslims and gave the charge in a statement by his Director of Press and Public Affairs, Dr Makut Macham, yesterday in Jos.
According to the statement, the special occasion marking the birth of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, is a reminder of his teachings of love, forgiveness, peaceful coexistence and humility among others.
It further said that the failure of humanity to practice love is what has given rise to selfishness, violence, intolerance, religious bigotry, ethnic hatred, corruption, high crime rate and wickedness in the society .
