Tambuwal urges Nigerians to be law-abiding

Speaker of the House of Representatives, Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal, has urged Nigerians to be law-abiding at all times and restore the virtues of good neighbourliness.
Tambuwal said these in a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by his Special Adviser on Media and Public Affairs, Mallam Imam Imam, on the occasion of the Eid-el-Kabir celebration.
Tambuwal said for Nigeria to make progress, the citizenry at all levels must be their brother’s keeper and be more sensitive to the well-being of one another, the News Agency of Nigeria reports.
According to him, all Nigerians must show commitment and readiness to make sacrifices toward the development of the nation.
He said that making sacrifice for the nation had become imperative now more than ever before, considering the numerous challenges confronting the nation. 
The speaker added that while every nation on earth had peculiar challenges confronting its people, the determination to tackle those challenges at times sets some of them apart.
“We must face our problems with more commitment, determination, unity of purpose and the best of intentions,” he said.
He enjoined Muslim faithful to use the occasion to reflect on their spiritual lives.
“Let me use  this opportunity to urge Nigerians, especially adherents of the Islamic faith, to use the occasion to reflect on our spiritual life as individuals and how we can contribute more meaningfully toward making Nigeria the great nation envisioned by its founding fathers.”
