Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State, and his Benue State counterpart, Samuel Ortom, yesterday urged Christians and Nigerians of other faiths to take advantage of the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ to pray for the quick recovery of the country’s economy, and the sustainability of an indivisible Nigeria.
In a Christmas message released by the Director, Bureau of Communication and Strategy, Office of the Governor, Mr. Semiu Okanlawon, Aregbesola urged Christians to look onto God for help and sustenance consistent with the counsel to “pray always, and not faint.”
Ortom in a statement in Makurdi reminded the people that Christmas is not only a time for celebration, but also for sober reflection on our lives as individuals and the state as a whole.
