The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi,
has urged Nigerians to remain hopeful for a better nation especially as the
2023 general elections are fast approaching.
Obi made this call while delivering his 2022 Christmas
message to Nigerians as contained in a statement made available on
Saturday.
He explained that the celebration of Christmas birthed hope
in the world, while urging Nigerians to hold unto that firm hope for a better
and more productive nation.
He restated that Christmas was a season of love and that the celebration of the birth of Christ should be a constant reminder of how God gave His only begotten son for the salvation of humanity.
He said, “We, as humans should therefore, endeavour to make
sacrifice, even when it is painful, for the good of others and for our
society.”
He encouraged Nigerians to go beyond the festivities and
glamour associated with the Christmas season and strive to live out the true
essence of the celebration.
The former Anambra State governor stated that fraternal love
and giving to the poor are the hallmark of Christmas celebration, and enjoined
all to lend helping hands to one another.
Obi urged Nigerians to see the year 2023 as a very
significant year in the history of the nation as it presents Nigerians the
opportunity to turn around the trajectory of the nation by giving only
competent leaders access to power.
He wished Nigerians a productive and prosperous new year.
