The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, has felicitated with Christians across Nigeria on the joyous occasion of Christmas.
In a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Edwin Olofu, Ganduje noted that the festive season serves as a reminder of the values of love, peace, and unity, as exemplified by the life and teachings of Jesus Christ.
According to the statement, the Christmas season is a time for reflection, thanksgiving, and fostering bonds of harmony that strengthen our collective resolve to build a prosperous and united nation.
Dr. Ganduje called on all Nigerians, irrespective of faith or background, to embrace the spirit of togetherness and mutual respect, which are essential for national cohesion.
He further emphasized the need for selflessness, generosity, and care for the less privileged, especially during this season of giving.
The APC Chairman also urged Nigerians to be patient with the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, acknowledging that the bold economic reforms undertaken have caused discomfort to many. He noted, however, that the results of these reforms are already becoming evident.
Ganduje assured Nigerians that by next Christmas, the economy would have stabilized and improved, adding that the government’s efforts in securing the country are yielding results, with significant reductions in cases of banditry and kidnapping.
The former governor of Kano State reiterated that as the nation navigates its developmental challenges, the APC leadership remains committed to promoting policies and programs aimed at achieving sustainable growth, security, and improved welfare for all citizens.
The National Chairman urged all Nigerians to use this festive period to pray for the continued peace, stability, and prosperity of the country, as well as for the success of leaders at all levels of government.
