PDP advises Nigerians to embrace Christmas virtues

The national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Tanimu Turaki, has urged Nigerians to embrace love, sacrifice, and humility during the Christmas celebration.
Mr Turaki, in a statement on Wednesday, extended warm felicitations to Christian members of the party and the wider Nigerian community.
He said the values exemplified by Jesus Christ were “timeless principles” capable of transforming Nigeria’s national life and stimulating economic prosperity.
According to him, Christmas remains a reminder of collective resilience and shared responsibility in building a stronger and more united nation.
“These are not merely seasonal virtues but timeless principles that can transform our country and usher in economic prosperity,” Mr Turaki said.
He assured Nigerians of the party’s commitment to promoting such values in politics, saying they held the key to the nation’s collective aspirations.
Reflecting on current socio-economic challenges, Mr Turaki urged citizens to remain hopeful, noting that determined people often emerge stronger from adversity.
He prayed for peace and prosperity in Nigerian homes, expressing optimism for a new year filled with “God’s abundant blessings”.
