The minister urged Christians and all Nigerians to use this year’s Easter celebration to pray for an end to the country’s security problems in certain regions.

 

Aregbesola stated, “Security is everyone’s responsibility. I therefore urge Nigerians and foreigners residing in our country to demonstrate a strong sense of citizenship and patriotism by supporting the efforts of all security agencies to bring peace and security to the lives and property of the citizenry.”
