Jonathan urges Nigerians to remain resolute

President Goodluck Jonathan yesterday urged all patriotic Nigerians to remain strong and resolute in defence of the country, despite the current security challenges confronting the country.

Jonathan made the call yesterday in his Eid-el-fitri message to Muslims nationwide, in which he congratulated them.

According to President Jonathan, “Although the observance of the Holy Month was sadly tainted in parts of the country with the continuing atrocities of extremists and terrorists in our midst, I urge all patriotic Nigerians to remain strong and resolute in defence of freedom, unity, law and order, peace, security and progress of the nation.

“I feel the pains and anguish of all our compatriots who have experienced the harrowing impact of terrorism unleashed on them by brainwashed and misguided agents of evil and disunity, but we must never throw up our hands in helplessness and despair as the terrorists and purveyors of anarchy want".

“I assure all Nigerians, once again, that we are totally committed to winning that war, putting the scourge of terrorism and insecurity rapidly behind us and giving the fullest possible attention to the urgent task of improving the living conditions of our people in all parts of the country.”

He congratulated all countrymen and women who have successfully undertaken the purifying Ramadan fast.

“As we celebrate Eid-el-fitri, it is my hope and prayer that Ramadan’s spiritual lessons and the Holy Prophet’s teachings of piety, love, justice, fairness, equity, peaceful co-existence with others, tolerance, honesty and dedication to duty will remain with us all for the benefit and greater glory of our dear nation,” he added.
