Presiden Bola Tinubu rejoices with Nigerians at home and abroad as the Christians celebrate another Easter.
In a statement the President says To Christians in Nigeria and around the world, the Easter season reminds us of the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ and the redemptive power of salvation for humanity.
That the season also reminds us of the significance of Easter and the message it embodies— sacrifice, resilience, and the triumph of light over darkness noting that the essence resonates with the current realities in the Country as Nigerians navigate a period marked by economic strains and security challenges, even as determined efforts are underway to address them.
President discloses that despite the efforts of his administration and the gallant efforts of our men and women of the Armed Forces who leave behind their families to confront the evil actors in the land, challenges to our security have remained.
But he assures that his administration continues to make resources available and forge foreign partnerships to enable us to deal decisive blows to the agents of terror and banditry.
The President says he was in Jos on Thursday to commiserate with people of Plateau State, share in their grief, and offer reassurances of better days to come.
The leaders of the nation's security institutions have given strong assurances of progress. We have also sought and are receiving assistance from outside our shores.
President Tinubu reminds citizens of the imperative of unity and oneness adding that no nation can thrive where fear prevails, and no progress can be sustained without peace.
To other parts of the country also enduring one form of insecurity or the other, rest assured that concerted efforts are already yielding breakthroughs.
I therefore call upon all citizens to support lawful efforts, be our brothers' keeper, and reject all forces that threaten our collective well-being.
The President explains that the ongoing reforms, though demanding in their immediate impact, have been carefully put together and backed by a strong commitment to take us to a shared prosperity.
As the nation gradually approaches another electoral cycle, this season also serves as a call to civic duty and maturity. The Electoral Act must guide the conduct of our political parties and political actors. Let our choices be guided by a shared commitment to peace, continuity, stability, and the long-term good of our country.
Democracy flourishes where responsibility, restraint, and informed participation prevail.
Easter gives us the encouragement and confidence that, even as present conditions still put pressure on many of our people, economic indicators show we are making the right choices. A new dawn is on the horizon.
He salutes Nigerians for being very supportive of his administration because of their trust in the ability of the administration to make the nation better, even as he reiterates his commitment to retain the trust.
He enjoins the citizens to keep the faith, and never cease to contribute to the progress and greater future we seek, each in our own way, to the emergence of a democratically stronger, more prosperous, and a safer nation.
The President wishes us all a happy Easter celebration.
