He urged Christians to embrace the teachings of Jesus Christ “as exemplified in the display of love, humility, forgiveness, generosity, and above all continuous  reflection on God’s superlative qualities.”

Mustapha further enjoined Christians to use the holidays to collect their Permanent Voters Card (PVC) while intensifying prayers towards the success of the 2033 general election in the country.

He prayed for peace and harmonious co-existence between individuals, communities and ethnic groups, and enjoined Nigerians to eschew divisive tendencies and bigotry.
