Senator Buhari  in a press statement issued by his Media Office also admonished wealthy Nigerians to extend hands of charity to the underprivileged during the festive period to promote love and harmony.
While urging Nigerians to cultivate the habit of peaceful coexistence amongst all religious adherents in the country, Senator Buhari said ‘‘Peace is key to development and without it, living will be difficult.
The APC lawmaker representing Oyo North at the upper chamber of the National Assembly stated further that “ I am appealing to all Nigerians to use this period to make sacrifices of tolerance for peace to reign in the country.
“This period is key to all and we must take advantage of it and give room for permanent peace to engender growth and development in all sectors.’’
