He also called on them to celebrate the period with exceptional love and joy , according to him, “if Jesus didn’t resurrect, the Christian faith would have been vague and Christians would not have had any valid claim today to advance”
Governor Okorocha also told Christians that “in celebrating the Easter, they should also remember the imports of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and then show love to all, which his death on the cross also meant to mankind”.
