Christmas: What Tinubu want Nigerians to do for Buhari
A national leader of the All Progressives Congress,
APC, Ahmed Tinubu, has urged Nigerians to support President Muhammadu Buhari to
fix Nigeria’s economic problems.
The APC leader made the call in a Christmas message
he signed and circulated through his Media Officer, Tunde Rahman in Lagos.
He urged Nigerians to learn from the example of
Jesus Christ “who faced and overcame the greatest evil” by uniting to overcome
the country ’s various challenges.
“The challenges facing the country are difficult
ones. Let us unite to overcome our challenges and keep the hope alive.
“We must support President Buhari and complement his
efforts in his resolve to stimulate the economy and reposition the country.
“The president needs our support , understanding and
prayers. We must fully break the terrorism of Boko Haram and completely put
down the last vestiges of the terrorists.
“We must continue to pray for the men in uniform who
risk their lives to keep us safe and to end this scourge on the nation. I
commend our troops battling the terrorists . I thank them again for their
courage and bravery.
“Let us remember those who have been dispossessed of
their homes and traumatised by the evil of these terrorists and pray that they
all will be able to return home soon and begin their lives a new and better.
“Yet , we must do more than pray . We all have
something to give, something to contribute to the greater good . As Jesus gave
of himself that we may live better, we must give of ourselves that others
around us may have a better life.
“Christmas Day , is one of the most precious days of
the year for it celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ.
“Be you Christian, Muslim or just a human being with
a soul that yearns for peace, compassion and hope, Jesus Christ belongs to all
of us . His teachings are universal in application and speak of truth eternal.
“He reached out to all. Jesus fed the poor and
healed the sick. He spread compassion and charity and preached love and justice
. There are no finer aims than these and we can do no better than to do all we
can to follow his example.
“We must commit ourselves to peace and unity . Let
us eschew all bitterness and bigotry ,” he said
