The President of the Nigerian Senate, Dr. Ahmad Lawan has enjoined all Nigerians to imbibe the culture of peace, love and selfless sacrifice as the country joins the rest of the world in the Christmas celebrations.

The Senate president enjoined all Christians and Nigerians at large to take advantage of the festive period to reflect on the significance of the season. According to him, Nigerians should look beyond the merriment and reflect on the humble birth, simple life, teachings and sacrificial love of Jesus Christ.

This was contained in a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Media, Ola Awoniyi, on Friday.

The statement reads, “Jesus Christ embodies selfless love, self-sacrifice, justice and peace, all of which virtues our country needs more than ever before as it marches through big challenges to sustain its democracy and development.

“Therefore, I enjoin us all to reflect on the significance of the season and recommit to these virtues for the benefit of our dear country Nigeria and mankind in general.

“Let us all continue to pray for peace in Nigeria and engage only in things that will make Nigeria the great country that we desire it to be.

“The current challenges require the continued cooperation, support and understanding of all Nigerians for the government to succeed.

“I have no doubt that the meaningful collaboration between the Legislature and the Executive in the governance process is making the political environment conducive for addressing national challenges and harnessing opportunities.”
