The All Progressives Congress (APC) has charged Nigerians to dedicate themselves to more prayers during Easter to seek divine intervention and guidance for the country’s leaders.
Governor Mai Mala Buni of Borno state and chairman, APC Caretaker and Extra-ordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC), gave the charge in a statement on Friday in Abuja by his director-general, press and media, Alhaji Mamman Mohammed.
Buni also called for love, unity, peace, harmony and tolerance among Nigerians and called on religious leaders to use the occasion of Easter to preach peace, tolerance and unity among Nigerians.
He said the Easter period should be used to pray for Nigeria to overcome its challenges and for its prosperity.
“As people of faith, we should dedicate ourselves to more prayers during the Easter to seek divine intervention and guide our leaders in the right way. We should see ourselves as a people with common dreams and aspirations for a greater Nigeria that is full of love, tolerance, unity and prosperity.
“We have no other country than Nigeria, we should therefore work to unify and strengthen our dear country,” the statement read in part.
He further called on Nigerians to see a problem in any part of the country as a common and shared problem that should be fought collectively.
He wished all Christians and Nigerians a peaceful Easter celebration, love and abundant peace.
