SGF to Christians: Embrace Jesus Christ’s teachings, pray for 2023 polls

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, has urged Christians to embrace and internalise the teachings of Jesus Christ during the 2022 Christmas celebration.

Mustapha described Christmas as the manifestation of God’s greatest love to redeem and reconcile mankind through the birth of Jesus Christ.

The SGF made this known via a message to Christians in commemoration of Christmas, a copy of which was made available to The Star on Saturday.

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.
