The announcement was contained in a statement issued on Tuesday in Abuja by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, Dr. Magdalene Ajani.

In the statement, the Minister of Interior, Dr. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, conveyed his goodwill to Muslims in Nigeria and beyond, urging the Ummah to uphold the Prophet’s exemplary qualities of peace, love, humility, tolerance, and compassion—values he said are essential for fostering unity and national progress.

“The celebration of Eid-ul-Mawlid offers us yet another opportunity to strengthen the bonds of brotherhood, promote peaceful coexistence, and imbibe the Prophet’s teachings of mutual respect and selfless service to humanity,” the statement quoted Tunji-Ojo as saying.
