Ramadan: Cardinal Onaiyekan, Lalong visit Muslims at Islamic Centre

Cardinal John Onaiyekan and Governor Simon Bako Lalong of Plateau State were at the Al-habibiyya Islamic Centre in Guzape, Abuja, to make donations to the centre as a part of the annual gestures of the Cardinal to the Muslim community.

Lalong who accompanied Cardinal Onaiyekan to the breaking of the fast described the gesture as exemplary and capable of eliminating the intolerance and suspicion that exist between Christians and Muslims.

He commended the Cardinal for demonstrating the love of God to Muslims and people of other faiths.

He explained that such solidarity would foster peaceful coexistence among Nigerians and remove the negative narratives of religious differences that have become a major threat to the progress of Nigeria.

Onaiyekan who appreciated the Al-habibiyya Islamic Centre for always inviting him described the gesture as a good step towards building bridges and demystifying the so-called differences said to exist among Nigerians that have been exploited for negative reasons.

He said that despite the terror being unleashed on Nigerians by few criminal elements, Nigerians are largely peaceful people that love one another and tolerant of one another’s religious, political, and ethnic persuasions.

He, therefore, advised against the propagation of the notion that Nigerians are at war with one another which is incorrect.
