The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has urged Nigerians to use the occasion of Easter, the festival of the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to strengthen their hope in God and seek a national renewal by rekindling their love and commitment towards one another especially at this trying time.
The party, in a statement by its national publicity secretary, Hon Debo Ologunagba, also urged Nigerians not to allow the 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.
“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.”
Against this backdrop, the PDP urged the Federal Government to take immediate actions to address the high cost of food, petroleum products and other essential commodities and services so as to alleviate the suffering of the masses.
