The Executive Governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke has felicitated with Christians in Osun State and beyond on the occasion of this year’s Christmas celebration, urging them to follow Jesus Christ’s example of compassion and tolerance.
Governor Adeleke, in his Christmas message, described the birth of Jesus Christ as a defining moment for mankind, said the festive season is a solemn reminder of the power of love and how it can save humanity.

“In the mood of celebration, I urge us to take a moment to reflect on the message of renewal that the birth of Jesus Christ signifies, promoting activities that will unite not divide, build not destroy, and bring peace not conflict.
“It is also my sincere appeal that we extend hands of kindness to the needy and the weak in the society, spreading love and generosity beyond borders. That is the essence of Christmas, and it is most essential that at a time like this, no one is left to their fate.”
