Former President, MUHAMMADU BUHARI has urged Nigerians to unite and stand behind leaders at all levels, describing the current period as a decisive moment for democracy.

In his Sallah message, the former President emphasised the importance of supporting leaders—from local government officials to those at the national level—as they work towards transforming the nation’s development landscape.

Speaking to newsmen in Daura, shortly after observing the Eid prayer, BUHARI congratulated fellow Muslims on the successful completion of the 30-day Ramadan fasting and the performance of the Eid.

He stated that it is vital that Nigerians stand united in safeguarding the sovereignty and integrity of the country.

BUHARI also called on contestants to political offices to always ensure a smooth succession from one administration to another without stoking communal tensions and obstructing development.
