The Youth Wing, Christian Association of Nigeria, YOWICAN, has called on Nigerians to use Christmas as a moment of sober reflection to redirect all thinking and actions towards nation building.
The Chairman of YOWICAN, Enugu State, Mr Chekwube Ani, made the call in a Christmas message made available to journalists in Enugu on Sunday.
According to Ani, Christmas should not be a time of festivities alone. It should be a moment of deep sober reflection.
He said: “We should take out time in this season to evaluate ourselves and the society to see how much we have appreciated and promoted the salvation work of God.
“The gift of Jesus, whom we celebrate His birth during Christmas, is for reconciliation and salvation of mankind.
“This gift of Jesus was borne out of love and is for all men, John 3:16. Therefore, let us take this season to reconcile with our maker and demonstrate love to one another as God did to us.
“As we celebrate the birthday of Jesus Christ this year, let us be mindful of who we celebrate; what He represents and what He does.”
Ani also appreciated Gov. Peter Mbah, for the massive work done in security, health, education, agriculture, road construction, water project, tourism and other infrastructural works ongoing around the state.
