Former President of Nigeria, Goodluck Jonathan, has urged Nigerians not to give up on themselves and the nation no matter the “challenges that confront us today.”
Naija News reports that Jonathan made this statement in Easter message to Nigerians which was personally signed by him and posted on the micro-blogging site, Twitter, on Thursday evening.
The former President assured Nigerians that through their “faith and collective actions”, Nigerians “will overcome the tempests of violence, misery, and insecurity that threaten” the country. 
Jonathan noted that Jesus Christ’s “resurrection as a testimony of the new covenant is the justification for Christians’ commemoration of the triumph of life over death, freedom over bondage and hope over despair, at this time,” the President wrote on Twitter.
The former President added: “I, therefore, urge us not to give up on our ourselves and our nation no matter the challenges that confront us today. At all times we must remain resolute on our love for God and our nation and work towards building a country that we can all be proud of.
“Through our faith and collective actions, we will overcome the tempests of violence, misery, and insecurity that threaten our nation. We are more than conquerors and the future of our nation is bright, if we work as one.
“May God fill our homes with peace, love, and joy even as we enjoy the abundance of Grace that Easter brings. Happy Easter!”
