As Christians across Edo State, Nigeria, and the world celebrate the joyous occasion of Easter, I extend my heartfelt greetings and best wishes to all.
Easter represents the cornerstone of the Christian faith, symbolizing sacrifice, renewal, hope, and the triumph of life over death.
It is a sacred season that calls on us to reflect deeply on the values of love, selflessness, forgiveness, and compassion as exemplified by Jesus Christ.
On this special occasion, I extend warm and heartfelt greetings to women, children, families, and all vulnerable groups across the State.
Your strength, resilience, and invaluable role in building a compassionate and progressive society remain deeply appreciated and will continue to be supported and protected by the Ministry.
