Christmas: Better days are coming – Ekiti Deputy Gov assures citizens
The Deputy Governor of Ekiti State Mrs Christianah Monisade Afuye has appealed to Ekiti citizens to have unflagging faith in Governor Biodun Oyebanji to fulfil his electioneering promises geared toward combating the burdens of poverty and insecurity in the land.
She urged them not to be hopeless despite the myriad of challenges confronting the nation, assuring that better and more glorious days are coming with the commitment being displayed by Governor Oyebanji and his team.
Afuye urged the citizens to display uncommon patriotism during this period when the nation seems challenged, by exposing saboteurs working with evildoers to compromise security and causing wanton killings, kidnappings and economic deprivation.
Afuye said this in a congratulatory message marking the Christmas festivity and signed by her Special Assistant, Media, Victor Ogunje, on Friday.
The deputy governor said Christians must always exhibit the nudge to do good to humanity through the lessons of love, joy, sacrifice, and togetherness as espoused by Jesus Christ.
She avowed that the country will overcome the current security and economic conundrum and emerge stronger and better with the support and prayers from Christians for their leaders and government at all cadres.
She further sued for peaceful co-existence among Ekiti citizens, regardless of religious and political inclinations, warning that fanaticism brews and stokes hatred, crisis, instability and senseless killings of innocent people.
While urging for celebration with modesty and in conformity with the directive of Jesus Christ, she urged them to ensure that Ekiti State becomes a state that is a model for others.
She said: “The lesson in this celebration is love, togetherness, sacrifice, piety, generosity, liberty and purity of hearts and souls as adumbrated by Jesus Christ in the holy book.
“Let all Ekiti indigenes have faith in the government of Governor Biodun Oyebanji and instil the good virtues exhibited by Jesus Christ in their hearts and dealings in the quest to building a state that is progressive, peaceful, stable, and incorruptible
