“If we want to seek redress, we should go the legal way, we should not incite people, we should follow the law of the land and then hope on the lord.”

Speaking on the essence of Easter festivities, Bishop Adewole said “Easter celebration is the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.

” Today Jesus rose to defeat Satan and to open the gate of eternity for believers, today is so important because if there is no resurrection there will be no Christianity.

“He rose , that is why we have confidence to know that even after leaving this world , there will be place in the Kingdom.”

Some of the faithfuls who spoke to our Reporter also expressed delight on the celebration of Easter and hope for better days ahead.

Meanwhile, the Kwara State governor Abdulrahman Abdurazak has congratulated the Christian community in the state on the Easter festivities, calling it a period of introspection, self-discipline, sacrifice, forgiveness, and commitment to God.

In a statement issued by the Chief Press Secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye and made available to newsmen in Ilorin Kwara State, the Governor called on Nigerians to take advantage of the period to seek God’s favour for the country and eschew all divisive tendencies.

“The Easter festivities come at a unique moment in our national life when we have just elected new representatives and chief executives to pilot the affairs of the country for the next four years.

“In the spirit of the Easter, and of the Muslim’s holy month of Ramadan, we need to bury the hard feelings that came with electioneering campaign and join new leaders for the task of nation building — a task that requires everyone to support every effort for sustainable growth and development.

“I wish everyone greater strides and glad tidings as we celebrate the festivities.” He said.
