As Muslims across Nigeria commence their fast, President Bola Tinubu has urged for a "moral renewal" and a focus on kindness.
The President used the occasion to seek the understanding of the public, emphasizing that nation-building requires collective compassion and forgiveness.
Tinubu directly asked for forgiveness from the citizens, noting that as human beings, leaders also make mistakes.
He reminded the nation that Ramadan is not just about avoiding food and drink, but about acts of kindness that contribute to national development.
Meanwhile, former Labour Party aide Akin Osuntokun revealed that the long-standing beef between Nuhu Ribadu and Nasir El-Rufai actually got worse years ago.
He claimed it intensified when Tinubu chose to support Ribadu over El-Rufai for the 2011 elections.
The President’s message was clear: for Nigeria to move forward, people must learn to let go of old grudges and work as one.
