Senator Solomon Adeola (APC, Ogun West), the chairman of Senate Committee on Appropriations has called on all Christians in particular, and Nigerians in general to use the occasion of the Christmas celebration to renew their faith in Jesus Christ of Nazareth and pray for a better Nigeria with the implementation of the Renewed Hope Agenda of the present administration.
In a Christmas message through the media adviser, Chief Kayode Odunaro, to felicitate with his constituents and Nigeria Christendom on the occasion of 2023 Christmas, Senator Adeola said Christmas symbolizes the celebration of the birth of a new dawn for the salvation of souls for all humanity especially for the Christians stressing that with the birth of Jesus Christ that we are celebrating, mankind have a hope for a better future and salvation of souls for eternity.
“I want to urge all Christian faithful not to use the occasion of 2023 Christmas celebration for merry-making only but use it as a period of reflection and supplication to God Almighty for a better, peaceful and prosperous future. With this year’s celebration coming months after the commencement of the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration, I urge all Nigerians to see the season as another opportunity for fervent prayers for a new dawn and prosperous future for individuals and the Nigeria nation” the senator stated.
While acknowledging that Nigerians in general are going through a difficult period of socio-economic downturn occasioned by many historical local and global factors, the senator urged all Nigerians to be patient and look forward to a better future of renewed hope adding that with abiding faith in Jesus Christ all our challenges will be a thing of the past with a renewed hope for massive reforms and uplifting national development agenda. ”
In a related development, Senator Solomon Adeola also rejoices with Ogun State Council of Nigeria Union Of Journalists (NUJ) concerning the Christmas and New Year celebrations, wishing the body and members a blissful celebration during the Christmas and a prosperous new year for all in advance.
