President Muhammadu Buhari in his Eid-el Maulud message to Nigerians on Sunday said the 2017 Appropriation Bill that he would present to the joint session of the National Assembly on Wednesday would take Nigeria out of recession.
In the
message which he personally signed, the President said with collective
dedication and hard work, Nigerians would in 2017 overcome the economic
difficulties, and return the country to the path of prosperity.
Read after the cut...
“Again,
the calendar of life has brought us into another period of celebration, and
deep reflection. Celebration, because we are marking the birth of Prophet
Mohammed (Peace Be Upon Him), and deep reflection, because it is another
opportunity of pausing, taking a deep breath and reflecting on the current
realities before us.
First
of all, I wish all Muslims a happy and memorable celebration of the birth of
the great Prophet, through whose teachings, particularly on peaceful living,
tolerance, sobriety, generosity, sacrifice and honesty, and wisdom, the nation
has gained immensely in building a harmonious and prosperous society. The
universal truths of the Prophet’s values remain unchanged.
Against
all odds, we have used these pillars of strength in securing a just and fair
society, and our efforts are beginning to yield dividends in curbing terrorism,
militancy, corruption and other crimes that devalue our humanity.
As we
use the memorable occasion of this celebration to reflect on our current
challenges, I urge you not to lose faith in the ability of this administration
to make a difference in the lives of our people.
The
reality of the temporary challenges should not undermine our hope, reverse our
collective will to succeed, or divide us; rather it should remind us of why we
need to stay together, fight together and succeed together.
“We all share a vision of a better Nigeria, and we will all share in the responsibility of building the country of our dreams.”
