The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has felicitated with Christians on the occasion of Easter.
In a statement issued on Saturday, Debo Ologunagba, PDP spokesperson, asked citizens to strengthen their hope in Christ.
The opposition party asked Christians to “seek a national renewal by rekindling their love and commitment towards one another especially at this trying time”.
The party urged Nigerians not to allow hardship, insecurity and “uncertainty pervading the nation” to weaken their faith and optimism for a better nation.
“Indeed, the coming of Easter, the celebration of the triumph of life over death serves as divine reassurance of the saving grace of God in the gift of Salvation to mankind and His willingness to bring succor in any adverse situation,” the statement reads.
“Our Party urges Nigerians to reinforce the bond of unity and love by sharing with and supporting one another as this is the only way the nation can survive this perilous time.
“We also call on leaders at all levels and spheres to renew the virtue of selfless service by directing their energies principally towards the wellbeing and happiness of the people.”
The PDP asked the federal government to take immediate action to address the high cost of food, petroleum products, and other essential commodities and services to alleviate the suffering in the country.
