The Nigerian Senate President, David Mark, has sent a message of felicitation to Muslim faithful in Nigeria as they join the rest of the world to celebrate the 2014 Eid El-Fitr, marking the end of the Ramadan fast.
Senator Mark, in a goodwill message, congratulated them for the successful completion of the fasting and prayer, which he said the nation most desired in its trying times.
He lamented the security challenges the country had been facing and called for collective action of all citizens against the terrorists to end the menace.
Senator Mark also lamented that the over 200 Chibok schoolsgirls, who had been abducted by the dreaded Boko Haram sect for more than 100 days, were still held in captivity.
He said that one way out of this quagmire was for Nigerians to have a common approach against terrorists, irrespective of political, ethnic or religious affiliation.
Senator Mark added that the prevailing situation does not call for blame game but a collective action of all citizens against the terrorists.
