(SINL NIGERIA) The Chief of Defence Staff ( CDS), General Christopher Gwabin Musa has congratulated officers, soldiers and civilian staff of the Armed Forces of Nigeria on the occasion of Eid el‑Maulud celebration.
The CDS made this known on Friday in a statement by Acting Director of Defence Information, Brigadier General Tukur Gusau.
Maulud commemorates the birth of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and this solemn day offers us an opportunity to honor his life, emulate his teachings, and reflect on the enduring message of compassion, service and humility.
“I urge you to observe this event as a time for reflection on unity, commitment and loyalty.
“As the Prophet brought hope and good tidings to the world, so must we be promoters of peaceful coexistence and optimism—strengthening the bonds within our ranks and across our nation as we continue to serve with integrity, professionalism and dedication”.
