According to the statement, the National President of PFN, Bishop Francis Wale Oke, said Christmas is not just another celebration; it is a reminder of God’s goodness and mercies.

He encouraged Nigerians not to relent in their prayers for the will of God to prevail on Nigeria’s challenges.

Christmas is not just another celebration; it is a reminder of the goodness of God and fulfilment of his promise of redemption. It speaks to hope, joy and a new beginning, reminding us that no matter how long it takes to manifest, God’s plan will never fail nor falter.”

While commiserating with families and victims of terrorist and violent attacks in different parts of the country, the National President of the PFN prayed for comfort and strength for them at this time. He called on the government and security agents to work harder to guarantee the security of Nigerians, reminding them that the security of the people’s lives and property is the government’s primary responsibility.
