2023 Presidential hopeful, Bola Ahmed Tinubu has in a statement delivered on Friday, wished Nigerians, especially those in the Christian faith a happy 2022 Easter celebration.
Naija News understands that in the message, the National Leader of the All Progressive Congress (APC), urged Nigerians to hold to heart the millions of people who have been displaced by violent battles and attacks in Nigeria.
Having lamented the state of the nation, Tinubu on Good Friday, admonished Nigerians to remember their sacred duty to uphold the dignity of every human being and allow all who suffer to be close to their hearts and become their brothers and sisters.
The former Lagos State Governor again urged Christians across the country and the world at large to imbibe Christ’s life of service, compassion and sacrifice as they mark Good Friday ahead of the Easter celebrations.
He said, “This year has brought together the sacred days of two of the great Abrahamic religions and as Christians commemorate the sacrificial death of Christ, Muslims observe the Holy Month of Ramadan.
“In this, we are reminded that we Nigerians may be of different religions, yet we are of one family. We serve but one God.
“As we celebrate Jesus’ sacrifice this day, let us remember the millions of people who have been displaced by violent conflict and attack in our nation.”
