GOODWILL MESSAGE TO THE PEOPLE OF BAUCHI STATE BY HIS EXCELLENCY, SEN. BALA ABDULKADIR MOHAMMED CON , Fnipr , (KAURAN BAUCHI) THE EXECUTIVE GOVERNOR OF BAUCHI STATE ON THE OCCASION OF THE 2023 CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION ON MONDAY 25th DECEMBER, 2023

My  Fellow Citizens of Bauchi State,

By the grace of God Almighty, we are witnessing yet another Christmas. We thank Him for His mercy. I need not remind you that annual Christmas  cerebration is in commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ who paid the supreme price in order to save the lives of his disciples and followers. It is with great pleasure that I, on behalf of myself, the government and the entire people of Bauchi State, extend my warm and sincere message of goodwill to all Christians on the occasion of the 2023 Christmas celebration.

2. Throughout his lifetime, Jesus Christ preached peace, honesty, love for one another and above all the fear of God.   I therefore enjoin you all to, irrespective of your religious belief, imbibe and put these virtues into practice. While we observe the Christmas with merriment, we should also reflect on our routine and spiritual deeds  in the last one year and pray to God for better and prosperous years ahead.  

3. I wish to use this occasion to reiterate my call for mutual respect and peaceful co-existence among our citizenry. We should learn to live with one another harmoniously irrespective of our political, cultural and religious differences. We should also imbibe the spirit of love and forgiveness. The Christmas period should be used to strengthen existing friendships and establish new ones. To this end, I call on Christians in particular to exchange visits among themselves and adherents of other faith during the Christmas period.  

4. As a responsible and responsive Government, we are irrevocably committed to the protection of lives and property of  citizens of the State. To this end, Government is collaborating with security agencies to address real and perceived threats to security of lives and property of the citizenry. Pursuant to this, the Government is providing logistics and other support to the security agencies for effective and efficient operation.

5. Let me assure you that as we commence our second term after receiving your massive support during the  elections conducted earlier this year, we will work harder than   we did during our first tenure to provide more dividends of democracy in the area of infrastructure, education, health, economic empowerment and all other programmes that have direct bearing on your socio-economic wellbeing. We would reinvigorate and strengthen our administratrative machinery and capacity towards realizing these  noble objectives. I therefore call for your continued support and cooperation as we relentlessly execute our developmental programmes and projects throughout the nooks and crannies of the State.

6. While wishing you a Merry Christmas, I pray that the occasion will be observed peacefully. May the God Almighty continue to guide and protect us, Ameen.


Thank your 


Signed 

Office of the Special Adviser Media and Publicity to the Governor .

25th December, 2023.
