Kebbi State Governor, Dr. Nasir Idris, has prolonged heat Easter greetings to Christians within the state and throughout Nigeria, urging them to mirror on the essence of the season and to wish for peace, unity, and nationwide progress.
In a goodwill message launched on Easter Sunday, Governor Idris described Easter as a time for sober reflection, sacrifice, and non secular renewal. He referred to as on the Christian trustworthy to emulate the virtues of Jesus Christ—significantly love, endurance, tolerance, and understanding—of their every day lives.
“Easter reminds us that darkness is short-term and light-weight will finally prevail. Allow us to use this season to resume our collective spirit of resilience and dedication to constructing a peaceable and affluent Kebbi and Nigeria,” the governor stated.
He inspired Christians to increase goodwill to their neighbours no matter spiritual or ethnic background and to evangelise peace and unity, particularly in these difficult occasions.

Easter, which marks the end result of the Lenten season noticed by many Christian denominations, is widely known globally to commemorate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The custom was formalized in 325 AD on the Council of Nicaea, which established the Easter date based mostly on the lunar calendar.
The governor concluded his message by urging residents to stay steadfast in religion and prayer for the development of the state and the nation at giant.
