According to Tinubu, Easter is a momentous occasion and a magnificent celebration of life’s victory over death.

On this auspicious day, the President warmly greeted Christians worldwide, highlighting the essential principles of this solemn season: love, sacrifice, and compassion.

The President stated that the sacrifice made by Jesus Christ for humanity is a clear lesson for leaders and all Nigerians to yield to selflessness and compassion and to be steadfast in pursuing a united, peaceful, and prosperous nation. This was stated in a statement sent by Presidential Spokesman Ajuri Ngelale to State House Correspondents on Friday.

“I strongly commend Nigerians for the sacrifices they have made in the past few months for the nation to be steered to the path of recovery and sustainable growth, assuring them that the seeds of patience which they have sown are beginning to sprout and will in no time bring forth an abundance of good fruits,” Tinubu stated.
