The Nigeria Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ), Niger State Chapter, rejoices with the Muslim Ummah across the state, Nigeria, and the world on the occasion of Eid al-Adha, a festival that symbolizes sacrifice, obedience, compassion, and devotion.
As Muslim faithful commemorate the noble act of Prophet Ibrahim (AS), who demonstrated unshakable faith in Allah, NAWOJ Niger called on all to reflect on the values of unity, tolerance, empathy, and selflessness which Eid al-Adha inspires.
