Goodluck Jonathan's Easter message to Nigerians

On this Easter, I think about the unconditional love
that Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour, had for us
to the extent that He gave His life for our salvation
on Good Friday. My reflections also take my mind
back to His resurrection by God on Easter. What a
lesson for us of what sacrifice can achieve and the
benefits it can bring to mankind generally and
individually!
This Easter, I call on all, whether Christian or
Muslim, to emulate Christ and sacrifice something
for your nation, for your families and for
yourselves.
Was it not John F Kennedy who famously said "ask
not what your country can do for you—ask what
you can do for your country.” Let us not ask
ourselves who will change our nations for the
better.
Let us instead take a look in the mirror and ask
how we can change our nations for the better.
Indeed, as somebody once said, change begins
with me.
It begins with you. Let this Easter be the beginning
of a positive change in the nations of the world.
From my family and I to you and your family, Happy
Easter. May God bless you all. GEJ.
