According to Okorocha, for Nigeria to be great it
has to pass through “certain challenges.”

troubles that the country would come out
“stronger and more united.”

country and in Imo state, in particular join their
Muslim brothers and Sisters all over the World
to Celebrate Eid – El – Kabir.
“The Imo State Governor, Owelle Rochas
Okorocha, has called for serious prayers for the
oneness and progress of the nation, than they
had done in the Past.
“What we need now are prayers for the leaders
and for genuine love among Nigerians
irrespective of their tribes and religion, with
honest prayers, the nation would come out
stronger and more United from its current
challenges.
“No nation had achieved greatness and
prosperity without going through certain
challenges in the process and concluded that
Nigeria’s case would not be different.
“Those expecting that the country will divide will
be disappointed and Nigerians should begin to
see light at the end of the tunnel for the nation’s
economic and political growth.
“This is not the right time for hate speeches or
to apportion blame for any reason against one
another, but time for tolerance and
understanding among Nigerians.
“We pray for President Mohammadu Buhari and
all the Muslims in the country a memorable Eid-
El-Kabir.”
