President Bola Tinubu has assured poverty-stricken Nigerians that their endurance under untold hardship will soon be over as he joined the Christian faithful to commemorate Easter, a significant moment and glorious celebration of the triumph of life over death.

According to a statement by his media aide, Ajuri Ngelale, Mr Tinubu stated this in his Easter message on Friday.

The president greeted Christians in Nigeria and around the world, emphasising love, sacrifice, and compassion as the patent themes of this solemn season.

Mr Tinubu noted the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for humanity as a lesson for leaders and Nigerians to yield to selflessness and compassion and be steadfast in the pursuit of a united, peaceful, and prosperous nation.

Mr Tinubu commended Nigerians for their sacrifices in the past few months so the nation could be steered to recovery and sustainable growth.

“The president is assuring Nigerians that the seeds of patience which they have sown are beginning to sprout and will in no time, bring forth an abundance of good fruits.

“As Christians celebrate the victory of life over death as exemplified by the resurrection of Christ, President Tinubu assures all citizens that Nigeria will triumph over its challenges as his administration remains firmly committed to this end,” added the statement.
