Deputy Senate President, Barau Jibrin, has charged Christians and all Nigerian citizens to intensify prayers for the country’s peace, unity and progress.
He appealed to all to remain hopeful and steadfast in their collective pursuit for a brighter and more prosperous Nigeria.
He assured that the 2025 budget presented by President Tinubu to the joint session of the National Assembly on December 18 has the potential to transform the country’s fortunes positively, if fully implemented.
He added that once the budget is passed by the National Assembly and signed by the President, the legislature will enhance its oversight to ensure that all ministries, departments and agencies responsible for implementing the budget are held accountable.
“I rejoice with the Christian faithful and all Nigerians on this year’s Christmas. This year has presented us with challenges, but it has also shown our resilience, courage and determination as a people.
“Let us remain hopeful and steadfast in our collective pursuit for a brighter and more prosperous Nigeria.
“As leaders, we are committed to working tirelessly to ensure that every Nigerian enjoys the dividends of democracy. We are determined to create an environment where every citizen can thrive and peace and security reign supreme.
“I urge the Christian faithful to adhere to Christ’s teachings this Christmas and always. Happy Christmas and New Year in advance. May the New Year bring prosperity to our beloved country, the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” he said.
