Use this Christmas to renew your commitment to the promotion of tolerance, brotherhood, unity – Ossy Prestige 

The member who represents Aba North and Aba South Federal Constituency at the National Assembly, Hon. Prestige Ossy, has charged Nigerians to embrace peace, love and tolerance of one another as Christians all over the world celebrate Christmas.

He also urged Christians to imbibe the virtues of humility and love which are the hallmarks of the birth of Jesus Christ. Ossy Prestige, who gave the charge in his goodwill message, said that was the only way the country and indeed the world can be a better place to live.

In particular, the lawmaker enjoined Christians in Abia to remember the whole essence of the birth of Jesus Christ noting that despite the fact that Jesus was the son of God, he remains the classical example of humility and self-denial.

He urged the people to use the occasion of the yuletide celebrations to renew their commitment to the promotion of values of tolerance, brotherhood and unity among all groups in the country, saying such reflections would help them understand why they should respect each other’s rights, especially the right to life and to enjoy peaceful co-existence with their neighbours.

Ossy added that God’s purpose of sending Jesus Christ into the world is to bring salvation to humanity, an action that demonstrates God’s love for mankind.

Finally, he urged his constituents of Aba North and South and Abians at large to continue to adhere to Government directives and protocols to guide against the spread of COVID-19, even as the global world is facing the second wave of the dreaded disease.
