The President of the Republic of Somaliland, His Excellency Dr Abdirahman Mohamed Abdillahi Irro has once again underscored the need of having a nation whose populace lives in harmonious setting, hence uphold peaceful stability, for perpetual tranquility.
The Head of state underpinned the importance of social cohesion as precursor and catalyst of progressive development as he addressed multitudes of people who were observing the Eid al-Fitr prayer that denoted the end of the Holy Month of Ramadan at Hargeisa Central Jamia Mosque.
The festivities of the occasion are held widely by the Muslims faithful wherever they are all over the world.
President Dr. Abdirahman Irro prayed to Allah the Almighty to accept the worship, repentance, fasting and good deeds by the faithful during the month that they abstain from all foods and drinks, and of course, worldly pleasures throughout the ordained period.
He also extended his message of goodwill and congratulations to the Islamic people in general all over the world and the people of Somaliland in particular, on the day of Eid al-Fitr festivities, praying to Allah to make this year, one of prosperity and forgiveness.
