In a statement signed by her and made available to newsmen in Abeokuta she said in the midst of the celebration, Muslims should also pray for the nation and the leaders.

She said “As we rejoice in celebration of the birth of Prophet Mohammed, let us be mindful of the need to pray for peace and unity among the citizens, which form the fulcrum for the progress of our dear country.

“It is not coincidental that this is coming in the build up to the 2019 polls, but a divine arrangement, to give us the opportunity to lift up our voices in supplication to Allah, for guidance in the choice of our leaders.
