2023 Presidential aspirant, Nigeria Vice President and Pastor with the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Professor Yemi Osibanjo has said a Muslim religious festival performed annually in Kano and some other States in Nigeria has remained an untarnished emblem that unites people in the country.
Yemi Osibanjo stated this few hour ago in a Facebook page post after attending the 2022 annual Durbar Festival in Kano State on Tuesday.
The Durbar festival is an annual cultural, religious and equestrian festival celebrated in several northern cities of Nigeria including Kano, Katsina, Sokoto, Zazzau, Bauchi, Bida and Ilorin and the festival marks the end of Ramadan and also coincides with the Muslim festivities of Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Fitri according to Wikipedia.
According to Yemi Osibanjo, it was an honour to join the citizens and other people of Kano State on Tuesday to witness the 2022 Durbar festival, adding, the Durbar brings people across the country together in a celebration of Nigerians’ rich historical heritage as a nation.
“For years, amidst admirable grandeur, horsemanship, equestrian parades and a colourful display of preserved culture, the Kano Durbar has remained an untarnished emblem that unites us, bringing people across the country together in a celebration of our rich historical heritage as a nation.
“Honoured to have been able to join fellow citizens and the people of Kano today, at this year’s Durbar”, Yemi Osibanjo said.
