On behalf of the national leaders of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), I extend warm greetings to all our Muslim brothers and sisters as you celebrate Eid-el-Kabir 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This special festival, also known as the Festival of Sacrifice, reminds us of the faith and obedience shown by Abraham (Prophet Ibrahim). It teaches us about sacrifice, love, and kindness values shared by Christians and Muslims alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nEid-el-Kabir is a time to come together with family and friends, to share meals, and to care for one another. It is also a time to spread joy and build unity in our communities. As Nigerians, we can all use this moment to show peace and respect, no matter our faith.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
While we celebrate, we also remember those going through hard times. In Mokwa, Niger State, many families have suffered due to serious flooding. Lives have been lost, homes destroyed, and many people are in need. We send our prayers to everyone affected and ask God to give them strength and comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
CAN is ready to help. We ask churches and Christians to support those in need; by giving food, clothes, money, or offering prayers and kind words. We will also work with the government and other groups to make sure help reaches those who need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nEven when disasters strike, the spirit of Nigerians stays strong. We thank the Niger State government, emergency workers, and volunteers who are helping. CAN promises to play its part in bringing hope and relief.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
This season of sacrifice reminds us to care for others. Let us share what we have, visit those in need, and pray for peace in our country. Small acts of kindness can make a big difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eid-el-Kabir also gives us a chance to grow closer to our Muslim neighbours. Nigeria is special because of its many cultures and religions. When we celebrate together, we show that unity is stronger than division.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To all our Muslim friends, we wish you a joyful and blessed Eid-el-Kabir. May your prayers be accepted and your homes filled with peace and happiness. To the people of Niger State, we continue to pray for healing and recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nAs we mark this occasion, let\u2019s all show love, help the needy, and work for peace in our land. Together, we can overcome any problem and build a better Nigeria.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
May God bless Nigeria, comfort those in Niger State, and lead our country to peace and prosperity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
