The NCPC boss urged Christians to reflect on the significance of Easter by living upright lives and avoiding negative traits such as pride, moral arrogance, and sin.
“Let us shun moral arrogance, pride, and sin, and live lives worthy of emulation,” he said, adding that life is a journey in which all individuals will ultimately give account of their deeds before God.
Bishop Adegbite also called on Nigerians to support and pray for President Bola Tinubu and his administration, encouraging citizens to remain law-abiding as the country moves toward the 2027 general elections.
