The chairman of All Progressives Congress, APC in Abeokuta North Local Government, Alhaja Faidat Sarumi has congratulated Christians in the state and Nigeria in general for witnessing another Easter season.
Sarumi in her Easter congratulatory message personally signedby him and made available to newsmen urged Christians to emulate the sacrificial life of Jesus Christ who laid down his life for the salvation of mankind.
Faidat who congratulated Christians for successfully completing the Lenten season, said the lessons of Easter must not be lost in the fanfare that comes with the celebration of the important season.
She therefore called on them to reflect on the lessons of Easter, especially the crucifixion of Jesus and exhibit the virtues of love and sacrifice which the Lord Jesus Christ demonstrated.
Faidat said “the Easter period offers Christians and the entire people of Ogun State an opportunity for sober reflection, even while rejoicing with one another for witnessing the season”.
She charged the people of the state to “be moderate in celebrating Easter” noting that “the period is not solely for eating and drinking but to reflect on the past and hope for a better future for themselves and the state.”
