Kaduna State Governor, Senator Uba Sani has urged Christians to consolidate on the existing peace in the state.
In his Christmas message posted on his verified Facebook page, Governor Sani noted that Christmas “stands as a beacon of hope, reminding us that peace is possible”.
He wrote:
“We give thanks to the Almighty God for bringing us to this happy day and for his merciful hand upon our dear state.
“We have faced numerous challenges and have, as a people and government, been surmounting them.
“The indomitable spirit of the Kaduna people remains alive. We have made remarkable progress in the area of security which seemed intractable for a long time.
“Peace has returned to conflict impacted areas like Birnin Gwari and Giwa Local Governments through our peace initiatives facilitated by the Peace Dialogue Group.
“The Office of the National Security Adviser and security forces played critical roles in the success of the peace initiatives. The Kaduna Peace Model is now being understudied by other states, with a view to replicating it.
“We are fully committed to running a pro-people, pro-poor, and all-inclusive government, with equity, justice and fairness as the foundation for peace and progress.
“We have been engaging with various stakeholders, including the Kaduna State Elders Forum, religious leaders, youth and women groups, to address developmental concerns and security issues.
“I urge you to join us in praying for peace, not just in Kaduna State, but in our nation and the world at large.
“Let us strive to be instruments of peace, spreading love, kindness, and compassion to those around us.
“In a world that often values power, wealth, and status, let us remember that true peace comes not from external sources, but from within. It comes from a heart that is filled with love, forgiveness, and mercy.”
