The president-elect, Bola Tinubu, has urged Nigerians to reflect on God’s priceless sacrifice and limitless love for mankind at Easter.
Mr Tinubu, in a statement, urged Christians to emulate the virtues of Jesus Christ by showing love to neighbours, regardless of tongue, faith and tribe, as they celebrate Easter.
“We will make faster progress toward the achievement of the peaceful, united, strong, progressive and prosperous country we all desire if we eschew divisive, parochial, ethnic, religious sentiments and rivalries,” the president-elect said.
He noted that Easter was about renewed hope and redemption, symbolising the triumph of hope over despair, love over hate and condemnation, and optimism over cynicism.
“As we all enjoy the well-deserved break, I urge every Nigerian to reflect on the priceless sacrifice and limitless love of God for mankind.
“For Christians everywhere, this celebration is in commemoration of Jesus Christ’s life of service and his supreme sacrifice for the salvation of mankind.
