The PNCR in extending greetings on the special occasion of Eid-ul-Adha has expressed the party’s hope that Guyanese will use the occasion to reflect on its significance to the benefit of the nation.
The PNCR also noted that the “observance of the sacrifice of the great friend of Allah – Prophet Ibrahim (AS), is a day, which must fill the hearts of Muslims with great joy as it reminds them of the qualities associated with great character and encourages us to emulate them.”
The main parliamentary opposition party said further that “in Guyana, as ethnic tensions still persist and the value of human life appear to have been severely diminished as we daily witness the brutal murders, the gross violations of human rights and the serious decline in moral values in public life, all Guyanese need to emulate these qualities at this challenging period.”
Moreover, the party said, the economic difficulties facing many of citizens here and the poverty that persists, impose an obligation on all Guyanese to remember the poor and needy by sharing their sacrificial offerings with them.
