With enormous joy in my heart, I write to felicitate with our Christian brothers and sisters on this occasion of the celebration of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Without doubt, the whole essence of Easter centers on love, humility and sacrifice.
Without sacrifice, Jesus Christ could not have endured such huge humiliation for our sakes.
As the global and local economic challenges keep staring us in the face, the time to show love and compassion cannot be more than now.
As brethren bound together in the love of Christ, let us, within the limit of our capacity, lend helping hands to the needy and pray for God’s intervention in our nation.
I urge all of us to imbibe the lessons embedded in Easter by not making Jesus Christ regret why He paid such huge price your sakes and mine.
Let us forgive ourselves, sheath the sword and show compassion. And let us keep remembering our leaders in our prayers so that God can redirect their steps to take the country to its desired destination of hope that is renewed.
May the love and peace of this Easter abide in our homes.
Happy Easter to you all.
Your friend,
Dr Abiola Olumide Oshodi,
