In a goodwill message to mark the festive season, Yahaya urged Christians and the state citizens to embrace and embody the timeless lessons of Christmas rooted in love, peace and reconciliation.
The governor, in a press statement signed by the Director-General, Press Affairs, Ismaila Misilli, appealed to the people of the state to continue to foster unity, tranquility, and cooperation among themselves.
“As we celebrate this festive season, let us embrace the spirit of unity, love, compassion and togetherness, and extend goodwill to one another as exemplified by Jesus Christ,” Yahaya said.
The governor harped on the importance of using this festive period to offer special prayers for the nation’s prosperity and well-being, particularly in these difficult times when Nigerians face challenging social and economic conditions.
He reiterated his administration’s commitment to building upon the modest achievements in various sectors, and to steer the state.
“Amidst these challenges, I enjoin all citizens, both in Gombe State and across Nigeria, not to succumb to despair but to hold onto hope and optimism, and align ourselves with the vision encapsulated in the Renewed Hope Agenda set forth by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, – an agenda that, I am confident, will construct a resilient and prosperous nation for all,” the statement partly read.
