The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, has urged Nigerians to embrace unity and pray for a peaceful and prosperous nation.

In a Christmas message posted on his X handle on Monday morning, the former Vice President stated that it was important for Nigerians “to inject the healing and unifying serum of love for our neighbours into the nation’s consciousness, this Yuletide.”

He wrote, “I felicitate with all Nigerians, particularly the Christian faithful, on this significant occasion of Christmas.

“Christmas is a time of love. Therefore, I call on all Nigerians to emulate the essence of this season and unite for the greater good of our dear country.

“Christmas is the season of love, joy, generosity and forgiveness, and while we celebrate with family and friends, we should also spend time to pray for a more peaceful and prosperous nation as it is important for Nigerians to inject the healing and unifying serum of love for our neighbours into the nation’s consciousness, this Yuletide.

“As we celebrate, we should continue to extend hands of love and fellowship to our neighbours and live as one big family, irrespective of our social, political and religious leanings and continue to trust God for a better tomorrow and a greater country.”

END.
