Otunba Gbenga Daniel, the esteemed senator representing Ogun East, has expressed confidence in Nigeria’s journey towards greatness, writes Seunmanuel Faleye. Drawing parallels between the Easter story and the nation’s narrative, Senator Daniel highlighted the themes of persecution, resurrection, and renewed hope.
Easter celebration signifies the culmination of the Christian Lenten season, which serves as a period of purification and sanctification for Christians. During this time, believers engage in various acts of worship, including prayer, sacraments, repentance from sins, almsgiving, atonement, and self-denial by abstaining from food, drinks, and otherworldly indulgences.
In his message, Senator Gbenga Daniel noted that, despite the nation’s challenges, he conveyed optimism about Nigeria’s trajectory of redemption and success. He extended warm Easter wishes to all Nigerians, urging them to find hope and inspiration in this season of renewal.
His message reads:
“The story of Easter started with persecution and pains and ended up with Resurrection and Renewed hope of Salvation and Joy; just as our story as a Nation. We are on a trajectory of redemption, May Nigeria succeed. Happy Easter Nigerians!”
