The Governor who felicitated with Christian faithfuls also urged them to continue to live in peace and harmony with believers in other faiths in the State.

In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Gboyega Akosile, Governor Sanwo-Olu enjoined every citizen to reflect on how best to positively impact the lives of friends, colleagues, neighbours and family members.
