The All Progressives Congress (APC) has felicitated with Christians and indeed all Nigerians on the joyous occasion of Christmas which commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ.
The party in a statement signed by the national spokesman, Lanre Issa-Onilu urged Nigerians and Christians in particular to pray for the country and its leaders.
“As we gather with family and friends for the Christmas festivities which is characterised by gift-giving, social gatherings and feasting, we should remember and extend love and generosity to the less-privileged around us.
We should also emulate the virtues of Jesus Christ exemplified by self-sacrifice.
“The Party calls on Nigerians to use the joyous occasion to pray for our leaders and the peace, progress and socio-economic development of our dear country,” the statement added.
