The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has urged Nigerians to use the occasion of the Christmas celebration to promote and strengthen the bond of love, unity and care among themselves.
The party said it is the only way Nigerians can survive the prevailing widespread hardship in the country occasioned by the anti-people policies and misrule of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
This was contained in a statement by Debo Ologunagba, PDP National Publicity Secretary.
Ologunagba lamented that millions of Nigerians are no longer able to afford their daily meals, with most families not having the resources to travel to celebrate and bond with their loved ones as usual.
“There is a general sense of gloom and despondency due to the prevailing hardship at this time.
“The PDP laments that due to the abysmal level of poverty in the country, millions of Nigerians are no longer able to afford their daily meals, with most families not having the resources to travel to celebrate and bond with their loved ones as usual.
“Some of those who travelled are stranded on the many dilapidated highways with no hope in sight. There is a general sense of gloom and despondency due to the prevailing hardship at this time.
“Our party however urges Nigerians not to give up hope or allow the sufferings they face at this time to make them lose sight of the blessings of Christmas and its message of hope and assurance of light at the end of the tunnel.
“Nigerians must therefore stand by and share with one another at this time so that the joy of the season can spread to all.
“The PDP wishes all Nigerians a merry Christmas,” parts of the statement read.
