The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has charged President Bola Tinubu and other leaders to adopt a selfless and pro-people attitude to promote good governance in the country.
In a statement by its national publicity secretary, Debo Ologunagba, on Sunday, the party charged “all leaders at all levels, sectors and spheres to use the occasion of Easter celebration 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 of Jesus Christ to bring redemption to mankind.”
Against this backdrop, the PDP restated its demand on the Federal Government to rescind all its anti-people and life-discounting policies, address the ravaging insecurity, hunger, and economic hardship in the country.
It urged Nigerians to use the period to renew their hope in the assurance of God’s unfailing love and intervention in the affairs of the country and humanity.
The PDP also charged Nigerians “to use the import of the Easter, which signifies the ultimate triumph of God’s saving grace over adverse circumstances to reawaken 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 (APC) 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 this perilous time.”
