Telecommunications operator, Globacom, has urged Nigerians to embrace peace and love, as the world marks Easter, an annual celebration in remembrance of the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
The company disclosed this in a goodwill message to Nigerians on the occasion, noting that ““Jesus Christ sacrificed himself for the sins of the world. His life, teachings, love for mankind and obedience to God exemplify the essence of creation. He lived a life of peace and brought salvation to mankind. Christians should, therefore, emulate his virtues and live in peace and love”.
Globacom assured its subscribers of unhindered voice, data and Short Messaging Service (SMS) during and after the Easter celebrations. It also encouraged Glo subscribers to avail themselves of the various data and voice offerings on the network.
Easter celebrations mark the end of the Christian Lenten season which is a means of sanctification for Christians. It features acts of worship including prayer, sacrament, repentance from sins, almsgiving, atonement and self-denial through abstention from food, drinks and other worldly concerns.
