The NHFSS Commander highlighted that mankind should take love and joy that are critical elements in the celebration of Christmas as synonymous with God’s love for mankind that made Him send His only begotten son, Jesus Christ, to be born and later sacrificed so that we can be salvaged and redeemed.
Dr Iwuoha explained that they are working tirelessly towards contributing their quota to support the security agencies in securing the forest within the country.
He commended the efforts the government is making at the State and National levels to make life worth living for Nigerians, promising that the future has a lot of better things in stock for everyone.
“Christmas is that time of the year when we celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, our saviour. It is a season of joy and love. Christmas reminds us of God’s special love for us, which made Him sacrifice His only begotten son for our salvation and redemption”.
According to him, It is indeed a joyous occasion because we are privileged to be alive to see another Christmas.
While indicating that the season also affords people living all around the world the opportunity to return home for the annual reunion with our kith and kin.
“Today, i urge all of us to renew our love for our state, our nation, and for humanity, for the sake of God. If God so loved us to the point of sacrificing His only begotten son, then the least we can do is to use the occasion of Christmas to renew our love to our fellow human beings. God has been kind to us in the sense that the plan of the enemy for our State didn’t manifest. Instead, we were enveloped by the love of God.
“I am particularly excited that the majority of our people in the Diaspora are already in the State to join their brothers and sisters in the celebrations of this year’s Christmas. This is commendable.
“Not only would they realise that Imo is peaceful, but they would behold the breathtaking infrastructure, especially roads that our governor Distinguished senator hope uzodinma administration has brought to the State.They would also witness firsthand, the rapid progress the administration is making in the social welfare of our citizens. With these, I believe that this year’s Christmas will be better than the previous ones.
“I am aware of the impact of the ongoing economic reforms of the federal government on the mood of the nation. However, I do know that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu means well for Nigerians and that these reforms will sooner rather than later yield positive results as our governor is strategically positioned to see that ndi imo benefit from such good governance.
“I urge us all to face the challenges before us with renewed hope and renewed love, knowing that with genuine love towards one another and our nation, we shall overcome. As always, I am positive that happier days are ahead.
“I wish us all a merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.”
