“Be Patient, Make Sacrifices” — APC Urges Nigerians in Easter Message
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has called on Nigerians to uphold the core virtues of hope, patience, sacrifice, and resilience as the nation marks Easter. In a message released on Sunday, the party described the celebration as a symbol of God’s eternal triumph over death and the victory of light over darkness.
Felix Morka, the APC’s National Publicity Secretary, stated that Easter, which concludes the Christian season of Lent, carries deep spiritual significance as it commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He emphasized that the occasion serves as a reminder of the enduring values embodied in Christ’s sacrifice.
“As we celebrate, we enjoin Nigerians to embrace hope, patience, sacrifice, and resilience, some of the priceless values and virtues immanent in Jesus’ death and resurrection,” the party said.
The APC also used the opportunity to express solidarity with Christians and urged prayers for the country’s progress. It called on citizens to support President Bola Tinubu’s efforts in addressing ongoing socio-economic challenges.
The statement concluded with an appeal for unity, love, and acts of kindness towards the less-privileged, expressing hope that the spirit of Easter would guide Nigerians towards peace, security, and continued national development.
