Senate President Ahmad Lawan has urged Nigerians, particularly the Christian faithful, to use the occasion of the Easter celebration to preach religious tolerance, love for our neighbours and commit to our civic responsibilities.
Lawan, in a statement on Thursday by his media aide, Ola Awoniyi, said: “Building a great nation requires sacrifice, endurance and hope. This is especially true in our own case where diversity in tongues and faiths make the task complex.
“But with abiding hope in our manifest destiny of greatness, I believe we shall overcome the challenges and build the Nigeria of our dream.
“The National Assembly will continue to work for the Nigerian people in this regard and in their legitimate pursuit of peace, happiness and prosperity in their beloved country.”
