Yuletide: Governor Fintiri Sues For Peace And Love Amongst Citizens

Adamawa State Governor, Rt. Hon. Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, has extended his heartiest felicitations to the people of Adamawa State and to all Christians as they celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.



While wishing Christians a successful Yuletide celebration, Governor Fintiri urged them to use the festive season to pray for unity, peace and prosperity of the state.


"The Yuletide season presents us an opportunity once more to love, share and forgive. I urge all to utilise the period to pray for unity, peace and prosperity of Adamawa State. We must also rededicate ourselves to the true virtues of faith in God, love for one another, honesty and peaceful-coexistence".


Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri also challenged the people to make the virtues more evident and practical in their daily dealings through spreading love to their neighbours and remember the underprivileged as they celebrate Christmas.


The Fresh-Air Governor described Jesus Christ as an embodiment of sacrificial love and advised Adamawa residents to exhibit unconditional love to one another, saying the impact will bring about a positive change that will lead to unity and development towards moving Adamawa and the nation forward.


"We must therefore rededicate ourselves to the service of humanity in line with the true teachings of Jesus Christ which emphasises tolerance, patience, brotherly kindness,  care for the needy and love for one another".


Governor Fintiri also observed that over the years, the teachings of Jesus, whom he described as an apostle of peace, compassion and brotherhood, had guided human beings on the path of righteousness and perhaps more relevant today than ever before, when the world is facing increasing hatred,  intolerance and violence. 


"I hope the  celebration of this joyous occasion will strengthen the bonds of communal harmony, brotherhood and reinvigorate the secular and pluralistic traditions for which our people were known for in the past".


The governor wishes all Christians and the entire people of Adamawa State a bright and merry Christmas urging for prayers for peace and prosperity in the state. 


"Such occasion reminds us to rekindle the spirit of harmony, brotherhood and lead a virtuous life".
