The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila, has urged Nigerian Muslims to remain united, steadfast and continue to live peacefully with their neighbours as they mark this year’s Eid-el-Maulud.

He urged all Nigerians to continue to be vigilant wherever they are as that would help in checkmating insecurity.Speaker Gbajabiamila was optimistic that Nigeria and Nigerians would come out stronger.
