Former President Goodluck Jonathan has congratulated Nigerians on the Christmas celebration saying love, unity and peace among Christians and others around the world should be imbibed.
Jonathan in his good will message on Friday signed by his Special Assistant (Media), Ikechukwu Eze, told Nigerians to “approach this season of Christmas with optimism and renewed faith in ourselves and our country.”
He said, “At Christmas, we celebrate love, hope and joy, which the birth of Jesus heralds to the world. As individuals and as a nation, we face different challenges. But we should not allow that to weaken our faith in God and our country, as well as imperil our shared promise of greatness and prosperity.
“Let us approach this season of Christmas with optimism and renewed faith in ourselves and our country. Let us exhibit love, tolerance, sense of unity and peace towards our neighbours and all around us during this season and beyond. Merry Christmas.”
