The governor in his usual way normally sends things such as food items and what have you to us. “On most occasions, Gov. Ugwuanyi visits in person. So, I want to say that we are highly delighted. Some of the significances of Eid-el-Kabir are sacrifice, unity, obedience and trust. “I want to use this opportunity to say that the Muslim Community in Enugu State has strong trust in the leadership of His Excellency, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi. “Our prayer for him is for Allah to elevate him to higher positions. As he remembered us today, we will continue to pray for him; we will put him, his administration and Enugu State in prayers tomorrow. “We thank him (Ugwuanyi) for this peace that he has established in Enugu State. We also thank him for all he has been doing for the Muslim Community. We are highly grateful for this gesture”. The Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the Governor on Logistics, Barr.
