In his Sallah message, the former Speaker said that Eid-Al-Adha is a season of love, peace, friendliness, compassion, togetherness and sacrifice.
He urged Nigerians to continue to embrace peaceful co-existence, show love and care to one another irrespective of their religious, ethnic or socio-cultural background.
Rijiki further called on the Muslim Umma and all Nigerians to continue praying for the peace and progress of the nation.
