In his Easter message, Ogungbuji urged citizens to reflect on the values of love, compassion and selflessness, describing the celebration of Christ’s resurrection as a powerful symbol of hope, unity and renewal.

The statement, issued through the party’s State Publicity Secretary, Sadiq Fatai, emphasised the need for Nigerians to draw inspiration from the Easter message in fostering national cohesion and peaceful coexistence.
