Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has advised Nigerians to show hospitality and mutual understanding through almsgiving in the spirit of Christmas.
The Zonal Coordinator, South-South Youth Wing of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Mr Chinedu Arthur-Ugwa, said this in a Christmas message he issued to newsmen in Owerri on Monday.
Arthur-Ugwa who felicitated Nigerians on Christmas and Boxing Day celebrations said that it was not an error that the two celebrations come simultaneously every year.
He said the celebrations afford Nigerians the opportunity to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor through hospitality and the giving of gifts to promote mutual understanding and national cohesion.
Arthur-Ugwa urged well-meaning Nigerians to give back to society by sharing what they have with the less privileged as a way of extending hospitality in the spirit of the celebrations.
He also called on the political leaders to give back to Nigerians through job creation in addition to food and other gifts.
