The national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has charged leaders at all levels to rededicate themselves to selfless service to the people.
In a goodwill message on the occasion of the Easter celebrations, the party also urged Nigerians to use the Easter season to renew their hope in God’s unwavering love and His divine intervention in the nation’s affairs.
The party, in a statement on Sunday by its National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, highlighted God’s saving grace over the string of adverse circumstances bedeviling the nation and its people.
The party urged the people to renew their determination and hope for the much-desired national rebirth, “as solution for the quagmires of hardship, insecurity and uncertainty pervading the nation under the anti-people All Progressives Congress administration.”
“The coming of Easter must also redirect us as a nation to the imperatives of the virtues of forgiveness, forbearance, mutual respect, obedience to the rule of law and love for one another without regard to sectional, tribal, religious or political considerations, as this is the only way our nation can survive these perilous times.
“Our party charges all leaders at all levels, sectors and spheres to use the occasion for deeper introspection and rededicate themselves to a life of selfless service and pursuit of the good of the people as exemplified in the life, teachings, sacrificial death and triumphant resurrection ofJesus Christ to bring redemption to mankind.
“Against this backdrop, the PDP restates its demand on the APC-led Federal Government to rescind all its anti-people and life-discounting policies, address the ravaging insecurity, hunger and economic hardship in the country,” the statement added.
