Nigerian must not allow the current hardship in the country to weaken their faith in the country, the Peoples Democratic Pary, PDP, the main opposition party has said.
The PDP made the admonition in its message to Nigerians in the celebration of Easter, marking the resurrection of Lord Jesus Christ.
Not a few Nigerians are complaining that this year’s celebration is one of the hardest for them due to the current economic crisis in the attending.
In the last few months, many Nigerians have suffered untold hardship as they manage to live from hand to mouth.
In spite of the situation, the party said Nigerians must not lose hope as the future will be better.
The party’s message was contained in a statement issued by Debo Ologunagba, the PDP National Publicity Secretary on Sunday.
The party said all efforts by political leaders in the country must be directed to bringing joy to Nigerians, as well as promoting peace, love and unity among the people.
PDP said: “Indeed, the coming of Easter, the celebration of the triumph of life over death serves as divine reassurance of the saving grace of God in the gift of Salvation to mankind and His willingness to bring succor in any adverse situation.
“We also call on leaders at all levels and spheres to renew the virtue of selfless service by directing their energies principally towards the wellbeing and happiness of the people.
“Against this backdrop, the PDP urges the Federal Government to take immediate action to address the high cost of food, petroleum products, other essential commodities and services so as to alleviate the suffering in the country.”
