The Supremacy of Sacrifice to Human Progress and
Nation-building
Ndi Anambra, all over Christendom, the period of Easter is a time for
deep reflection on the supremacy of sacrifice in the affairs of man.
In the Christian calendar, no other event draws attention to the
awesome love of God for mankind as exemplified in the sacrificial
death and resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ as the feast of
Easter does.
In much the same way, no time is humanity more vividly reminded of the
significance of SACRIFICE to human progress and nation-building as the
Easter period. Indeed every Easter, the entire Christendom is forced
to recall that our SALVATION is a product of priceless SACRIFICE…that
there can be no progress without SACRIFICE!
Ndi Anambra, this Easter is a Special one – our dear country, Nigeria
is on the cusp of change. The situation calls for greater
introspection and a better appreciation of the place of sacrifice in
the handling of the delicate issues of nationhood.
Just last week, President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan demonstrated a deep
understanding of the imperatives of sacrifice to nation-building when
he accepted our people’s collective wish for change and congratulated
the President-Elect, General Muhammadu Buhari on his victory in last
Saturday’s Presidential Election. In doing this, President Jonathan
has shown that if we are to build a country of our dreams, Nigerian
leaders must lead from the front…we must imbibe the virtue of setting
a personal example.
Ndi Anambra, as we re-unite with our loved ones and friends this
Easter, I urge you to devote a little time to reflect on the larger
questions of nationhood and the little personal sacrifices that we
must all make to create a better society for ourselves and our
children yet unborn.
The coming House of Assembly election gives us a great chance to
sustain the current momentum of purposeful governance in Anambra
State. We need a peaceful legislative assembly and a cordial
relationship between the three arms of government to continue our push
to expand the frontiers of excellence in Anambra State. We can only
achieve this by voting for all the 30 candidates seeking election into
the Anambra State House of Assembly on the platform of APGA. I urge
you to vote for them.
Ndi Anambra, I assure you that this exercise will not be like the last
one. I have the assurances of all the security agencies in the state
and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) that this
election shall be different from the last one. They have all assured
me that this time, your vote will count. So, come out and vote for
APGA!
Ndi Anambra, Happy Easter!
