As Christians across Nigeria and around the world celebrate Easter, the interim National Chairman of the Labour Party, Senator Nenadi Usman has advised Christians not to despair, even when people in authority have failed to provide succour.
The Labour Party’s interim National Chairman, in her Easter message, highlighted that the person of Easter, is such that will transform the lives of Nigerians who have suffered in the hands of their leaders.
“I extend my warmest felicitations to all Nigerian Christians on this joyous occasion marking the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.
The resurrection of Christ – coming just three days after His immense suffering and death on the cross – reminds us of the true essence of Christianity: faith, sacrifice, and forgiveness. Even in his final moments, Christ forgave his accusers and extended the hope of eternal life to those around him.

“His resurrection is a powerful testament that no matter how difficult or overwhelming our circumstances may appear, faith and resilience will always lead us to triumph. It is in this spirit that I urge all Nigerians to embrace the enduring lessons of Easter, particularly the virtues of forgiveness, hope, and steadfast faith”.
Usman, while calling on those in positions of authority to intensify their efforts to alleviate the suffering of the Nigerian people, also appeals to citizens not to lose hope. “Just as the disciples held firmly to the promise of Christ’s resurrection, so too must we remain steadfast in our belief in a better tomorrow for our nation.
“At this pivotal moment in our national history, I call on all Nigerians to thoughtfully examine the condition of our country and the part each of us must play in shaping a more united and just society. Whether in positions of authority or as everyday citizens, we all bear a shared responsibility to make meaningful contributions to Nigeria’s advancement.
“While we rightly expect vision and direction from those in leadership, we must equally remain committed to our personal responsibilities of upholding the values of integrity, diligence, and patriotism in all that we do.
“On behalf of the Labour Party, I wish all Nigerian Christians a peaceful, reflective, meaningful Easter celebration”.
