In his Sallah message to Muslims on the occasion of Eid-el-Kabir celebration, President Buhari said the outbreak of coronavirus has made it difficult for people to gather in places of worship as they are used to, urging worshipers to follow the guidelines for the safety of their lives and loved ones.“The preventive guidelines we have introduced to contain the spread of this deadly disease have unfortunately limited people’s freedom to gather and worship in large numbers in Mosques and Churches.
“No elected government would intentionally take away its people’s religious freedom by limiting the number of people that will gather in worship centres at the same time. President Buhari commended the sacrifices of Muslims and Christians in abiding by the COVID-19 guidelines for the good of the society, assuring that: “On our own part, we shall continue to provide economic reliefs to the people to minimize the unintended hardships these guidelines have inflicted.’’The President reminded worshipers that COVID-19 is a worldwide affliction with Churches and Mosques closed around the world and social distancing imposed to safeguard public health.
“Muslims should imbibe the noble virtues of our great prophets in order to establish closer connectivity between religious teachings and practice
