“His birth signified renewed hope for mankind in the possibility of a second chance.
“The birth of Christ was the beginning of a journey of love to redeem mankind.
“I urge all Christian faithful to remember and emulate the love of he who redeemed them because our nation is in dire need of love,” he said.
Kachikwu urged Nigerians to renew their hopes and faith in project Nigeria,saying, “because this is what our faith calls for.
“The task of nation building can only be done with a heart of love and with faith and hope in a better tomorrow.”
