Nigeria will pass through this Red Sea, Orji assures Nigerians

Abia state Governor, Chief Theodore Orji, has said that Nigerians must unite against evil that currently threatening the peace of the country as the only way to overcome and pass through its Red Sea.

In his Easter message to Abians, Governor Orji said terrorist organizations always seek ways to divide communities, but those who have overcome and have been able to attain stability have done it through unity.

He said: “They stand united against terrorism. We believe that Nigeria will overcome and this Easter presents us that opportunity to reflect on the words of our Lord Jesus Christ. Unity is devoted to by demonstrating that the teachings of Jesus Christ can be lived every day.

“This is the time that we must treat ourselves as brothers and sisters and work together to defeat the evil act of terrorism.  We must stand together at all times regardless of our colours or ethnic backgrounds.

“We must uphold the unity, progress and greatness of Nigeria, even in the midst of our challenges. It is the only way we can say we are part of this country, because our souls long for its greatness.”

He added: “We desire a nation where all Nigerians can move freely from one part of the country to another, where our children will not be kidnapped from schools and our women will not be raped by the evil men.”
