As Christians worldwide commemorate Easter, Hon. Kola Olabiyi, Chief Financial Officer of FGN Power Company Limited and a former member of the 7th National Assembly, has called upon the Christian community to embody the spirit of unity, love, and peace, mirroring the virtues exemplified by Jesus Christ.
In a statement personally signed and disseminated to acrossnigerianews.com, the former House of Representatives’ member emphasized that the Easter season presents a significant period for reflection, renewal, and genuine celebration. He underscored its importance as an opportunity for believers to rededicate themselves to the core values of love, forgiveness, and selfless service that defined the life and teachings of Jesus Christ.
“On this joyous occasion of Easter, I extend my sincere greetings to all Christians,” Olabiyi stated. “May we continue to propagate love, kindness, and compassion to our fellow beings, thereby cultivating an environment of happiness and unity.”
Furthermore, Olabiyi urged Nigerians to view this period as a crucial juncture for introspection on individual contributions towards national prosperity through collective effort.
Drawing upon the selfless sacrifice of Christ through his death and resurrection, the Okaka-born former parliamentarian also advised Nigerians to consistently offer selfless service to humanity.
“When we demonstrate love and provide selfless service, as Christ did, our nation and indeed the global community will become a more conducive place for all,” he asserted.
In his concluding remarks, Olabiyi appealed to Nigerians for increased patience and support for President Tinubu’s administration as it pursues its economic reform agenda.
“Let us maintain peace, exhibit love, practice tolerance towards one another, and make necessary sacrifices,” Olabiyi implored. “In doing so, we can uphold and advance the enduring legacy of Jesus Christ in our personal lives, our states, and the nation at large.”
