Christians have been urged to use the period of Easter celebration to pray for God’s intervention, given the security challenges facing Nigeria.
Governor Abubakar Bello of Niger State, made the call, in an Easter message.
He noted that periods like this are times for sober reflection and expression of love, as well as mutual understanding, as exemplified by Jesus Christ, during his lifetime.
The Governor in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mary Berje, explained that the death of Jesus Christ on the cross showed his level of sacrifice for the sake of the people.
