Senator Oluremi Tinubu has congratulated Christians in the Lagos Central Senatorial District, Lagos State and Nigeria as a whole, on the occasion of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Senator Tinubu, in her Easter message, said the period “sums up our faith – the love of Jesus and the power of His resurrection.”
She described the circumstances of this year’s celebration as peculiar, saying: “like never before, the world is bound together to deal with unprecedented adversity,” in reference to the Coronavirus pandemic.
She added: “this pandemic has revealed that more than ever, none of us, individuals or nations, exists in isolation; and our actions or inactions have a huge impact on one another.
“In spite of the lockdown, we must continue to strive to be more like Jesus, lovingly accepting one another, and extending a helping hand to the most vulnerable amongst us.

“We must also be united in our prayers for redemption, restoration and healing of our land and the world at large.
“However, the best way to help is to obey the directives of the authorities, observe social distancing and strict hygiene, and protect yourself to prevent further spread of the virus.
“Once again, I congratulate you all and pray that this season brings you renewed hope and the glorious joy of His resurrection. Stay safe, pray, and render help where you can,” she said.
