The President, Christian Association of Nigeria, Archbishop Daniel Okoh, has urged Nigerians to embrace unity, despite the challenges bedevilling the country.
Okoh, through a personally signed statement, on Sunday, also advised Nigerians to renew their commitment to building a better Nigeria.
He noted that just as Christ rose from the dead and brought new life to the world, Nigerians can rise above their challenges and start afresh.
The CAN President said, “As a nation, Nigeria has faced many challenges in recent years, from insecurity and economic instability to social and political unrest.
“However, just as Christ rose from the dead and brought new life to the world, we too can rise above our challenges and start afresh.
“This Easter, let us all come together and renew our commitment to building a better Nigeria. Let us embrace the power that gives a new beginning and work together to create a brighter future for ourselves and our children. Let us put aside our differences and come together in unity, just as Christ’s resurrection brought together people from all walks of life,” the cleric remarked.
Continuing, he stressed, “As we celebrate Easter, let us also remember the less fortunate in our society and extend a hand of love and kindness to them. Let us show compassion to those who are suffering and help to lift them up.
“In conclusion, I urge all Nigerians to take inspiration from the power that gives a new beginning that Easter represents. Let us come together as one people and work towards a brighter future for our nation.”
