His Royal Majesty, Omo N’ Oba N’ Edo Uku Akpolokpolo, Oba Ewuare II, Oba of Benin rejoices with Muslim faithful on the occasion of this year’s Eid-el-Mawlud — the birth of the Holy Prophet Muhammad.

Oba Ewuare urges the Muslim faithful to be tolerant of one another’s religion, irrespective of race, tribe, or party affiliation for national cohesion.

He urged the leadership and followers of Islam to rededicate themselves to the doctrines of Islam, adhere strictly to the virtues of Prophet Muhammad and prevent fundamentalists from making a cannon fodder of their faith.

In addition, Oba Ewuare II charged government at all levels to redouble their efforts towards addressing the security challenges, reduce poverty and stem the rising menace of out-of-schools children who require protection from the vicissitudes of life in Nigeria.

Oba Ewuare II, therefore prayed God Almighty and the ancestors to ward-off evil from Nigeria.
