“I want to congratulate the Muslim faithful on the completion of their fast. I believe it was a time for spiritual awakening. We do some soul searching as a nation, and this period was important to having a renewal of mindset.

“I believe this period will make us see the need to become better as a nation and why we should live together as one.
