The Governor, in the message signed by the Director, Bureau of Communications and Strategy, Office of the Governor, Semiu Okanlawon, urged Christians to reflect on the importance of Easter celebrations in their dealings, not only with other Christians, but with people of other religions.
He said Nigerians must eschew bitterness and all forms of violence, stressing that the progress, peace and security of the nation is anchored on good neighbourliness and peaceful co-existence.
