Rt. Hon. George Ozodinobi – Deputy Minority Whip stating that:
‘Today, is a very unique day for every Muslim faithful as it is of immense spiritual significance which gives everyone the opportunity to not only honour the birth of Prophet Muhammad, but also reflect on his teachings, and renew their commitment to live according to His principles of faith, kindness, humility, compassion, and love to all people. 
The Caucus also wishes to admonish the Muslim Ummah that, while reflecting on the Prophet’s legacy, and the enduring message of the celebration, it is imperative to seek Allah’s protection over Nigeria. We also solicit prayers for divine guidance for all our Leaders to take the right steps, and decisions in every situation and at all times. More importantly, the Caucus calls on our Muslim brethren, and all Nigerians to use this occasion to offer supplications for the peace, unity, security, prosperity, and development of our dear country and the citizenry.
Finally, the Caucus urges the government to take deliberate measures in tackling economic challenges towards improving the well-being of the people.
Happy Eid-el-Mauhlud!
