April 15, (THEWILL) – A Gubernatorial aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Caleb Mutfwang, has called on Christians to use the occasion of Easter to act and exemplify its values and significance.
In an Easter message circulated in Jos today, Mutfwang charged Christians not to allow the essence of the Lenten season fritter away without love sharing, and good neighborliness being demonstrated during and beyond the celebration.
According to him, “as we celebrate the persecution, death, and resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ, I wish the entire Christian faithful safe, successful, and love-filled celebration.”
He called on “Christians everywhere to use the opportunity of Easter commemorations to show forth like Christ the virtues of love, sacrifice, care, and sharing of peace and warmth to strenghten the morale of being one another’s keeper.”
For those who observed the Lenten season, he said “the lessons of surrender, self-denial, supplication, and spiritual communion etc must not be jettisoned especially as we continue to trust God for the solutions to insecurity and hunger in the land”, noting that “the goodness of the Lord be upon all of us as we work to enthrone good and responsive governance in our land.”
