Gov. Okorocha of Imo State

Imo governor, Chief Rochas Okorocha, has called on Christians to use the opportunity offered by Easter to pray for the nation, the state and the people.

He called for special prayers for President Mohammadu Buhari, and for God’s control in all situations in Nigeria.

Okorocha made the call in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Sam Onwuemeodo, in Owerri on Friday.

He urged all Christians not to allow the death of Jesus be in vain but rather to be mindful of its import and resurrection.

He also advised them to shun selfishness as demonstrated by Christ through his death.

The governor particularly charged Christians in the state to show love to one another during the celebration.
