Obi tells Nigerians to use Christmas season to appreciate essence of God

Tamarauemi Ebimini

The 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi has urged Nigerians to use the season of Christmas to appreciate God’s mercy on them as a country.

Obi, the former governor of Anambra, made this known in a Christmas message on his X-handle platform in Lagos on Sunday.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Federal Government has declared Dec. 25 and Dec. 26 as public holidays to commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ.

Obi noted that the people were going through immense hardship but should not allow it to stop them from using the season to appreciate God for his numerous blessings.

Obi said the current setbacks should not stop Nigerians as a people from aspiring to overcome present difficulties and realise the full potentials of the blessed country.

The former governor, therefore, enjoined Christians to use the great feast to offer special supplications to God for the country.

He said they could have the opportunity of joining others in the global community to give thanks to God for the abundant gifts he lavished on them as a nation.

Obi said as leaders, they must embrace the spirit of the season which emphasised charity.

Obi said on this unique occasion, he wished to reassure the people that their adversity should not persist for too long as we looked forward to a New Nigeria.
