The Director-General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Dr Dayo Mobereola, has extended warm felicitations to Muslim faithful in Nigeria and across the world on the occasion of Eid el-Fitr, calling on citizens to embrace compassion, discipline, and service to humanity.

Dr Mobereola described the Eid season as a sacred period marked by spiritual reflection, sacrifice, and renewed devotion to faith and humanity. According to him, the core lessons of Ramadan – compassion, selflessness, sacrifice, and unity – remain essential for strengthening national development and social cohesion in a diverse society like Nigeria.

“As we celebrate the end of the holy month of fasting, may this blessed season of sacrifice, reflection, and unity fill our hearts with gratitude and strengthen our bonds as one people. May this Eid bring peace, prosperity, and renewed hope to our nation. Let us continue to uphold the values of compassion, discipline, and service to the nation,” he said.

The NIMASA Director-General further urged Nigerians to reflect deeply on the enduring values of empathy, charity, and communal harmony symbolised by the season, encouraging collective commitment towards building a safer, more united, and prosperous nation.
