Etsu Nupe to Muslims: Sustain your good behaviour beyond Ramadan

Bida, NIGER—The Etsu Nupe, Alhaji Yahaya Abubakar, yesterday urged Muslims to sustain their good acts and behaviour beyond the period of Ramadan.

Abubakar, who spoke on the importance of Ramadan in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, said “we must maintain our God fearing acts which we exhibited during the fasting period. Such good behaviours include abstaining from adultery, cheating, alcoholism and drug abuse.”

The traditional ruler said it was only with the fear of Allah that Muslims could meet their needs and enjoy their possessions on earth.

He appealed to well-to-do Muslims in the country to assist the less privileged with food items and other basic needs.

Abubakar also urged the Muslim faithful to pray for continued peaceful coexistence and unity in the country, noting that “peace is a veritable tool for national development.

He added; “So, we must continue to pray and preach peace for the nation to move forward”.
