*Happy Eid El-Fitr 2026*

Takabbalallahu Wa Minkum.

As we mark the end of the blessed month of Ramadan, I extend my heartfelt felicitations to the good people of Borno State, Nigeria, and indeed the entire Muslim Ummah. Eid El-Fitr is a time of gratitude, reflection, and renewed commitment to peace, unity, and compassion.

May this joyous occasion bring abundant blessings, strengthen the bonds of brotherhood, and inspire us all to continue building a prosperous and harmonious society. Let us carry forward the lessons of sacrifice, patience, and generosity into our daily lives, working together for the progress of our dear state and nation.

I pray that Almighty Allah accepts our acts of worship, forgives our shortcomings, and grants us peace, health, and prosperity in the years ahead.

Eid Mubarak!
