Christians are being urged to see the Easter victory of Jesus Christ over death as a significant source of motivation for a new Nigeria, as conceivable by Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s (LP) presidential candidate in the general election of 2023.
According to Obi, it is also a clear sign that Nigerians would triumph over their current hardship and shout the great alleluia.
The former governor of Anambra State wrote on his X account, “I join the global community of Christians, especially Christians in Nigeria, in celebrating Easter – the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.
“This great occasion brings to an end, the Christian Lenten season of fasting, prayers, and almsgiving, and ushers us into the season of glory and victory over death.
“For us in Nigeria, this very significant celebration holds vital promises of victory over our present myriads of challenges, if we do not despair.
“Our dear nation has continued to stagger under the heavy weight of high insecurity, soaring hunger and poverty, ballooning debts, galloping inflation, and mindless corruption that has pervaded every part of our national existence.
“Just as Our Lord Jesus, who made very painful sacrifices for the salvation of the world, which today we celebrate His glorious resurrection, we all must continue to labour, in unity, for the good of our nation, knowing that our labours will not be in vain.
“I, therefore, call on all Christians, in the spirit of Easter, to continue to pray for God’s intervention in our dear nation, so that even as we labour, as humans, for the sake of our nation, God will crown our efforts with success, and make the New Nigeria even more possible, beyond our human efforts.
“I wish everyone a very Happy Easter celebration.”
