As Christians all over the world celebrate Easter, which marks the resurrection of Jesus Christ, Nigerians have been asked to keep hope alive in their quest for a better country.
The Catholic Priest of Our Lady Queen of Peace, Utako, Reverend Father Sebastian Sanni, stated this in the Easter Sunday church service message in Abuja on Sunday.
Father Sebastian said, “The significance of today’s celebrations means that our Christian hope for a better Nigeria has been restored, evil minds do not have power over us, and we no longer operate in the dark.
The Easter messages, which centred on the significance of the risen Jesus Christ and victory over the dead, were taken from the Holy Bible, in the book of John 20:1-9, the priest said, adding that they brought freedom and hope that had been lost.”
