By Ahmed Ajikobi
The former Senate President Bukola Saraki has congratulated the christians as they are celebrating Easter festival.
Saraki said this on Monday that, Nigerians should used this period to pray for peace and unity in Nigeria.
According to him, “l congratulate all Christians in Nigeria and across the world on the Easter Celebration, which marks the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and the end of the Lenten period.
“As Christians commemorate this significant occasion, which is a strong symbol of their faith, I encourage you all to pray for peace, security, sustainable development, and unity in our country.
“This year, it is quite fortuitous that the Lenten period and the Muslim Ramadan fasting periods overlap. This serves as a reminder from God that we are all His creations — regardless of how we worship Him or the names we choose to address Him.
“As you all celebrate today, I pray that Almighty God intervenes and heals our nation. May His protection be upon all members of our security forces fighting on the front lines to defend our country.
“On this note, I wish all my Christian brothers and sisters a happy Easter celebration.”
