A former deputy governor of Osun State, Senator Iyiola Omisore, has urged Christians and Nigerians as a whole to continue to exhibit the spirit of love, peace and unity.
Omisore, in a Easter message he personally signed, urged Christians to use the season to always provide selfless service to humanity just as Christ demonstrated through his death and resurrection.
He said this period should also serve as a reminder of the selflessness, love, sacrifice and tolerance of Jesus Christ.
The former chairman, Senate Committee on Appropriations, added that Nigerians must remain constant in their efforts to promote unity across all lines.
“I urge us not to forget the teachings of Jesus Christ. His life was a demonstration of love and we must endeavour to live in love and peace.
“Easter is also a time for deep reflection as it marks the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and his victory over death.
“It is also a time for all of us regardless of our ethnicity or religion to come together to pray for the peace of our dear nation.
“When we show love and offer selfless service just as Christ did, then our nation will be a peaceful one for us,” Omisore said.
