Easter: Glo urges Christians to embrace Christ-like virtues

Telecommunications giant, Globacom, has urged Christians to embrace the virtues that Jesus Christ preached in commemoration of Easter celebration in Nigeria.

Globacom made the call in its Easter message issued on Sunday, April 20, 2025.

While congratulating Nigerian Christians, the telecommunications company admonished them to imbibe the noble qualities of Jesus Christ.

Glo stated: “Peace, love and sacrifice are the central message of Easter.

“Christ offered himself in atonement for the sins of the world and he lived a life which made Him an eternal symbol of peace and goodwill for mankind.”

The company charged all Nigerians to espouse the lessons of selflessness, “a necessary ingredient in the growth and development of every society” and enjoined all citizens to join hands to make the country a better place for all.

Glo also commended Christians’ perseverance through the 40-day Lenten period which comes before Easter as “it emphasised the ideals of selflessness, love, and peace among all as a way of demonstrating the exemplary life of Jesus Christ.”

It added: “Easter comes yearly at the end of the Lenten season of fasting and prayer considered as a ritual of purification for the Christian faithful.

“It also precedes the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus Christ on Good Friday and His eventual resurrection on Easter Sunday.”

Glo assured its customers of unhindered voice, data, and Short Messaging Service (SMS) during and after the Easter celebrations, while urging them to avail themselves of the various data and voice offerings on the network.
