Hundreds of Muslims in Nakuru spared time to go to different mosques to mark the eid-ul-adha celebrations.
Speaking after leading the celebrations at the Nakuru Jamia Mosque, head imam Ahmad Rashid called for peaceful coexistence amongst different denominations and tribes for the better of the country.
"Let's not allow our different diversities to divide us because at the end of the day we are all Kenyans. That's the most unifying factor," he said.
The imam further called on a back-to-work formula among the relevant authorities to help solve the ongoing teacher strike.
"We must have an appropriate manner of solving the strike issue because our children are the ones being forced to bear the brunt. Something ought to be done as a matter of urgency," he advised.
He encouraged the Muslim faithful to share during the celebrations saying that such acts strengthen brotherhood.
Eid ul Adha is an annual ceremony dubbed 'the Feast of Sacrifice' that is celebrated to mark the end of hajj.
