President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday described the simultaneous commencement of Lent and Ramadan as a rare occurrence, urging Nigerians to draw lessons of unity, sacrifice and peaceful coexistence from the two sacred seasons.
In a message marking the beginning of the Christian Lenten season and the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, Tinubu said the coincidence of the observances underscored the shared values between adherents of the two faiths.
