It is a powerful message that no matter the trials we face, light will always prevail over darkness.

At a time when our state and nation continue to strive for greater unity, peace, and prosperity, Easter calls on us all to embrace these virtues in our daily lives.

We are inspired by the resilience of our people and encouraged by your continuous support and cooperation. Together, we will continue to consolidate on the gains we have made in security, infrastructure, healthcare, and economic growth.
“I urge all Kogites to use this season as a time of reflection and renewed commitment to peaceful coexistence, mutual respect, and unity across all divides. Let us extend love to one another, support the less privileged, and work collectively towards a future of shared prosperity. I implore you all to pray for our dear state, our nation and our dear President.
“May the joy, peace, and blessings of Christ fill your homes and hearts. May this season bring renewed strength, hope, and divine favor to our state and our nation.
“Happy Easter, and may God bless Kogi State and the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
