IPAC urges Christians to follow Jesus’ footsteps
The Inter-Party Advisory (IPAC) congratulated Christians on Christmas celebrations on Sunday.
IPAC urged them to emulate the life of Jesus Christ and imbibe His virtues of love, peace, unity, and tolerance in their service to God and the nation.
In a statement by its national chairman-elect, Yusuf Dantalle, the council described Christmas as significant to believers, as it marked the divine birth of Jesus Christ, who came to redeem the world from sin.
Mr Dantalle urged Nigerians to use the occasion to pray for the nation, particularly the security and economic challenges impeding progressive governance.
“The council enjoins government at all levels to provide dividends of democracy to Nigerians to assuage their sufferings in accordance with section 14 (2)b of the 1999 constitution as amended, which states that the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government,” he said.
Mr Dantalle said that as the umbrella body of all registered political parties in Nigeria, IPAC would continue to promote and deepen democracy in Nigeria in the quest for a strong, equitable, prosperous, and just democratic nation.
