AS WE CELEBRATE THE
BIRTH OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST, LET US NOT GIVE IN TO THE NEGATIVE
IMPULSE OF ANGER AND ANIMOSITY.
He advised Christians not to indulge in negative tendencies
during the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ.
“As we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus
Christ, let us not give in to the negative impulse of anger and animosity.
“Let us conduct ourselves in ways that appeal to the better
side of us and not those that appeal to our base sentiments.
“I came to this state to serve my people irrespective of
their political labels and affiliations.
“I am not serving you as a Governor for PDP people. This
message of love therefore is for the entire state, irrespective of political
affiliations.
“Let us come together and work to unite our people around a
common good and a common cause,” Emmanuel said.
He further enjoined the people to open their hearts to
friends and the needy by giving alms to the poor.
The governor also called for support for the families of
victims of Reigners’ Church tragedy, in order to cushion their pains of losing
their bread winners.
He assured the people of his administration’s determination
to do all within its powers to cushion the harsh effects of the prevailing
economic circumstances.
“I will work tirelessly to ensure that our people have the
capacity to put food on their tables; that the basic necessities of life are
easily available to our people.”
The governor said that the state government had sponsored
over 300 indigenes of the state that had various life-threatening ailments for
local and foreign medical treatment.
