Borno residents celebrate first peaceful Sallah in five years
For the first time in five years, the people of Borno State are being allowed to come out on the streets to celebrate Eid-el-Fitri.
The state had been closed to vehicular
movements during all festivities, be it Islamic and Christian, due to
the Boko Haram insurgency.
Many had thought they would be locked in during this year’s Eid-el-Fitri
until the Governor, Alhaji Kashim Shettima, surprisingly made an
announcement allowing all citizens of the state to have a fresh breath
of air.And celebrated Sallah peacefully.
