Easter: PDP Urges Prayers, Hope….Charges Nigerians Not to Despair
–
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has charged Nigerians to use the occasion of this year’s Easter to pray for the nation and rededicate themselves to the ideals of national unity, cohesion and peaceful coexistence.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement on Saturday, said the nation has witnessedย a lot of anguishย including the economic recession and gruesome bloodletting of the last three years, but noted that with the right leadership coupled with unity and dedication of the citizens, the nation will surely come out of the current woods.
Indeed, Easter which marks the resurrection Jesus Christ from the dead, offers us a unique lesson in the ultimate triumph of life over death, good over evil, love over hatred, truth over falsehood, hope over despair and unity over strife.
The PDP therefore urges Nigerians to, in the spirit of the season, eschew all divisiveness, forgive and show love to one another as exemplified in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ.
In the same vein, we urge all elected and appointed leaders, at all levels across the countryย to also reflect on the season and rededicate themselves to service for the good of all.
The PDP urges Nigerians not to despair as we have repositioned our platform for the all important quest by the citizens to rescue our dear nation from the current painful misrule.
On this note, we wish all Nigerians happy Easter celebrations.
