The President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, has urged Nigerians, particularly religious leaders and clerics, to pray for a peaceful political transition in Nigeria as christians join their brethren across the world in remembrance of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Lawan also calls for prayers for God’s blessings and guidance for the incoming governments at the national and state levels, including for the soon to be inaugurated 10th National Assembly and state Houses of Assembly.
According to him , the occasion should bolster hope of the nation’s triumph over her current challenges of nation building and the imminence of better days.
The Senate President also reinterated that , just as christians celebrate Easter for Jesus’ victory, over death on the cross and his resurrection that rekindles the hope of eternal life, they should also pray for the peace and prosperity of Nigeria.
Lawan urges all faithful to reflect on the significance of the season.
