The President of ECK Foundation Global, and the Convener of Global Initiative for Good Governance, GIGG, Chief Dr Emeka Kalu, has called on Nigerians, especially the Christians to see the yelutide as a period of sober reflection and closer communication with God. Admonishing them to emulate Christ whose life represented piece, love, compassion and righteousness.

He made the call during a Christmas message he sent to Nigerians on the day of celebration of birth of Jesus Christ, 25th December, 2023.

Dr Kalu said that the nation’s socio-political problems can be solved by fearing God. He advised turning a new leaf this Christmas by submitting to God.

Corruption—embezzlement of public funds, ritual killings, idolatry, immoral attire, thuggery, drug addicts, premarital sex—weakened society values, Kalui said. He encouraged repentance and a new life focused on God and fearing Him.

“I encourage Nigerians to start a new life dedicated to worshipping and fearing God for the 2023 Christmas. “A life dedicated to God is more meaningful and productive,” he stated.

“God-fearing people stay away from corruption, embezzlement, ritual killings, idolatry, hard drugs, thuggery, arson, indecent dressings, etc.

“We know we face national challenges.but when we stay focused and do the right things this time will also face away like others before it while me move on as a people.

“I wish you marry more returns.
