My dear people of Kogi State and fellow Nigerians,
As we celebrate the joyous season of Christmas and prepare to welcome the New Year, I extend my warmest greetings and best wishes to you all.
Christmas is a time to reflect on the birth of Jesus Christ, whose life exemplified love, humility, and sacrifice. His message of peace and goodwill towards all humanity reminds us of the importance of unity, compassion, and lifting one another up.
This season offers us a precious opportunity to strengthen the bonds of family, friendship, and community. I encourage everyone to open their hearts to others, share generously, and let the light of Christ shine through in all our actions.
As we step into the year 2025, let us carry the lessons of the past year with us. While we have faced challenges, we remain resolute in our determination to build a brighter and more prosperous future for Kogi State and Nigeria. Our resilience, faith, and collective effort will guide us to greater heights.
May the spirit of Christmas fill our homes with joy and hope, and may the New Year bring peace, good health, and success to all. Let us celebrate responsibly and with gratitude for the blessings we have received and the opportunities that lie ahead.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
God bless Kogi State.
God bless Nigeria.
Murtala Yakubu Ajaka
