The Alliance For Change (AFC) extends special greetings to all Guyana especially our Muslim brothers and sisters on the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr.
Eid-ul-Fitr is a day of victory for Muslims, having fulfilled their duties in many ways during the Holy Month of Ramadan. Eid-ul-Fitr comes after a month long physical, mental and spiritual rejuvenation for the purpose of gaining control and transforming oneself.  The Muslims in Guyana are now ready to recommit themselves to the change that is necessary to bring about a better society which begins with each individual.
Festivals have been a universal feature of all cultures and communities from ancient times. They generate harmony; forge unity and refresh the sense of identity among communities. They also put a spirit of life and rejuvenate the existence and sustenance of a community or nation.  The this end the AFC salutes the Muslim Community for maintaining their religious and cultural practices that has served to enriched the Guyanese landscape and spirit.
But even on this festive occasion, Muslims remember those less fortunate, including those impacted by poverty, hunger, conflict, and disease. Throughout the month, Muslim communities collect and distribute zakat-ul-fitr so that all Muslims are able to participate in this day of celebration.
The AFC submits that this trust to cultivate and stimulate charity, community, cooperation and compassion must now begin to nourish the national movement to change Guyana for the better. Today, more than ever, our nation craves and is desperate for the wisdom of moral and religious instruction.  For too long, our collective effort at governing our country has been devoid of the teaching of our diverse religious mosaic.
The AFC wishes all Muslims and their fellow Guyanese a most blessed and joyous Eid-ul-Fitr.
