The Executive Chairman of Isolo LCDA, Olasoju Adebayo has rejoiced with the residents especially the Christian faithful in the council area as the world commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ.
In a press statement released via his media office this morning, the council honcho urged the residents to keep embracing the fundamental values of altruism, love, peace, perseverance and tolerance and which Jesus Christ was famed for.
He added that the season is also a period to specially appreciate God for the unparalleled faithfulness which accompanies the gift of His only begotten son – Jesus to atone for the sins of mankind.
“Here is conveying my felicitations to our teeming Christian constituents and around the globe on the commemoration of our saviour’s birth.
Christmas affords us a reflection on the birth of our Lord Jesus – God’s greatest gift to mankind and how best to commemorate that is to demonstrate our understanding and consciousness of the virtues of love, selflessness, humility and other sterling traits which the son of virgin Mary exemplified”.
Olasoju, in his usual style, however, sounded a note of caution against lawlessness and unruly celebration as he prayed to God set the nation’s foot on the path of recovery soonest.
“While we wine, dine with our loved ones and engage in other manners of celebration lawfulness should be held dearly to our minds and security consciousness should not be compromised.
I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year in advance” the release read.
