April 17, (THEWILL) – A governorship 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 last Friday, Mutfwang charged Christians not to allow the essence of the Lenten season fritter away without showing love and good neighbourliness during the Easter celebrations.
“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 said.
He called on Christians to use the opportunity provided by the Easter celebrations to promote the virtues of love, sacrifice, care and sharing of peace and warmth to strengthen 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.”
