The National Chairman of the Labour Party, Nenadi Usman, has called on Nigerians to embrace unity, hope and collective responsibility as Muslims across the country mark Eid-el-Fitr.
In a message released on Friday, Usman urged citizens to reflect on the state of the nation and their individual roles in shaping a better future, stressing that national progress requires contributions from both leaders and ordinary citizens.
“At this critical point in our nation’s journey, I urge all Nigerians to use this moment for sober reflection on the state of our country and the role each of us must play in building a better future,” she said.
She emphasised that addressing Nigeria’s challenges—ranging from insecurity to economic hardship—requires a shared commitment to rebuilding trust and strengthening institutions.
“From policymakers to everyday citizens, we all share a collective responsibility to contribute our quota towards making Nigeria work,” she added.
While acknowledging the difficulties facing the country, the Labour Party chairman expressed optimism about the future, insisting that unity and renewed commitment would lead to progress.
“I remain confident that, with unity of purpose and renewed commitment, there shall indeed be light at the end of the tunnel,” she said.
Usman also urged Nigerians to uphold values of integrity, hard work and patriotism, noting that national development depends not only on leadership but also on the actions of citizens.
She encouraged people to promote peace, unity and progress in their communities, while extending her best wishes to Muslim faithful celebrating Eid-el-Fitr, calling for reflection on how to build a stronger and more prosperous Nigeria.
