The Bible Society of Nigeria (BSN) and Christian community is to celebrate National Bible Day on May 5.

The day set aside to celebrate the gift of the Bible is to enable Nigerians reflect on and imbibe the values prescribed by the Holy book.

Speaking ahead of the event, General Secretary/CEO,  Bible Society of Nigeria, Pastor Samuel Sanusi, said the socio-economic and security challenges facing Nigeria would  be greatly reduced if people adopt and live by godly values.

“If the global community could celebrate Workers’ Day, Independence Day, Water Day, Literacy Day, and other days, set aside to be remembered, it will be ideal to also use a day to celebrate the Bible, a gift from God to humanity and pray for the well-being of the nation. The Bible Society of Nigeria invites everyone to participate in the National Bible Day celebration on May 5, 2023, through studying, meditating, and reflecting on the word of God,” he said.

He said the day would celebrated  across Nigeria by churches, schools, and Christian organisations.

“It is an opportunity to highlight the importance of the Bible and encourage its study and application in our daily life,” he said.
