Yuletide: Umahi Urges Devotion To Nation, Fostering Stronger Bonds

The minister of Works, Engr. David Umahi has felicitated with Nigerians on Christmas and urged citizens to reflect on personal devotion to the cause of the nation and the gains of fostering stronger bonds and positive memories in interpersonal relationships.

In a Christmas message, Umahi said the Renewed Hope administration has made record-breaking progress in improving public service delivery and refixing the governance framework, which will stimulate economic growth and national development.

He said the private sector window is being created, and the enabling infrastructure is taking shape.

“Our road infrastructure delivery is being enhanced nationwide to support the growth of our economy.

All we need is a reciprocation of faith, hope, solidarity, loyalty, and love for our nation,” he said.

He said the Christian festival offers an opportunity to reflect on the need to renew our gratitude to God our Maker through our unflinching love for one another, boundless generosity to our neighbours and selfless service to humanity, which are divine values required to make the world a better place.

“In a moment like this, we are expected to reflect on our personal devotions to the cause of the nation and the gains of fostering stronger bonds and positive memories in our interpersonal relationships.

“Our nation, Nigeria, deserves nothing less than the commitment of love for our country and devotion to the tenets of peace and progress from all citizens.

“As we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and its significance to our nationhood, I particularly send my warm greetings to the president and Commander-In-Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and I commend him highly for his profound leadership stewardship that is making the desired difference in our development trajectory,”.

The minister commended the Federal Ministry of Works’ management and staff for their exceptional work in driving the Renewed Hope agenda in the works sector.

“Together, a nation of peace and prosperity shall be achieved,” he added.
