NASFAT Publicity Secretary, Akeem Yusuf, said in a statement in Lagos on Saturday, that the gesture had become a tradition for the society.

“This is a tradition of the society. We felicitate with Muslims in Nigeria and in the Diaspora to mark the end of Ramadan.

“The programme this year has been extended to zones of the society outside Nigeria,” he said.

He said that NASFAT also disbursed N60.9m in cash and food items to the vulnerable in the society as a palliative measure to mitigate the effect of the lockdown occasioned by the COVID-19 pandemic.
