Governor Inuwa Yahaya has felicitated with Christians in Gombe on the occasion of Christmas.
In a goodwill message on Sunday, Mr Yahaya urged the faithful to imbibe the spirit of love.
He also admonished the Christian faithful to embrace the timeless lessons of Christmas, which he said were rooted in love, peace, reconciliation, and thoughtful introspection.
Given the country’s socio-economic challenges, the governor urged the faithful to leverage the season to offer special prayers for the nation’s prosperity and well-being.
“As we celebrate this festive season, let us embrace the spirit of unity, love, compassion and togetherness and extend goodwill to one another as exemplified by Jesus Christ.
“Use this festive period to offer special prayers for the nation’s prosperity and well-being, particularly in these difficult times when Nigerians face challenging social and economic conditions.
“Amidst these challenges, I enjoin all citizens, both in Gombe state and across Nigeria, not to succumb to despair but to hold onto hope and optimism. And to align ourselves with the vision encapsulated in the Renewed Hope Agenda set forth by President Bola Tinubu, an agenda that, I am confident, will construct a resilient and prosperous nation for all,” he said.
The governor reiterated his administration’s commitment to building upon modest achievements in various sectors and steering the state toward greater prosperity and progress.
