As we celebrate this joyous occasion of Eid Al-Fitr, I extend my warmest greetings to you and your families.
Eid is a time of gratitude, reflection, and unity, marking the successful completion of Ramadan—a period of deep spiritual devotion, self-discipline, and acts of kindness. Your commitment to faith, charity, and togetherness during this sacred month is truly inspiring and reflects the essence of our shared values as a society.
The spirit of Eid aligns perfectly with the role of arts, culture, and creativity in our communities. It is a time when we come together to share in the beauty of traditions, music, poetry, and storytelling that strengthen our collective identity.
Let us use this occasion to celebrate the rich cultural expressions that bring people closer, fostering understanding and peace among all. Through art and culture, we can continue to showcase the beauty of our diversity and promote unity in our nation.
On this special day, I encourage us all to embrace the values of love, compassion, and generosity that Eid represents. Let us continue to support one another, uplift our communities, and contribute to a society that values both cultural heritage and innovation.
May this Eid bring you and your loved ones abundant joy, prosperity, and good health. Eid Mubarak!
Hon. Matthew Ekwuruibe
