Sesi Oluwaseun Whingan, the founder, Sesi Whingan Foundation and 2023 House Representative hopeful of Badagry Federal Constituency has urged the good people of Badagry to imbibe the spirit of Jesus' sacrificial love among one another.
The young philanthropist made the call in an Easter goodwill message to the people of Badagry made available to the media.
Mr. Sesi pointed out that, we all celebrate Jesus, the only begotten son of the Almighty God annually at Easter because of His exceptional sacrificial love he made for mankind by surrendering his life to death, so as to save all mankind from eternal damnation. He said, though, we do not necessarily need to sacrifice our lives like Jesus did on the cross of calvary, because with that Jesus has paid the ultimate price, but there are lots of sacrifices we could do to show Christ-like love to our neighbors and every other persons who might need us one way or the other as we sojourn in life. He said sacrificial love is all about showing love to one another without minding the pains and other costs this might cost us.
Sesi preached that, such love could be exhibited by sharing what we have with those in need.
"My good people if Badagry, at
every time we celebrate the Easter, we try to remember and commemorate the uncommon sacrifice made by our Lord Jesus Christ to all mankind by sacrificing his blameless life on the cross of calvary so that we all might be safe from eternal damnation."
" My Easter message to the good people of Badagry is that, as we celebrate this great season of love, let's all strive, by all means possible, to emulate the the kind of love Jesus exemplified by making sure we show love to one another and be ready to make any sacrifice for betterment of our Badagry, Lagos and Nigeria at large. We have got no other home apart Badagry, let show love to one another. "
"let those who have enough food, clothes, house, money share with those who lack at this Easter and beyond"
"Let emulate Jesus by showing care for the sick, destitutes, widows, the poor and foreigners."
"With these gestures, we are in our little way, showing sacrificial love as instituted by our Savior, Jesus Christ."
"As we all know, Badagry is known as the most peaceful area in Nigeria. Let all go about this celebration with peace, love but with total adherence to all protocols of Covid-19, as the pandemic is yet to be wipe out completely from our nation."
"At this blessing filled Easter, I wish to seize this opportunity to wish all the good people of Badagry, a happy and wonderful Easter celebration."
"Thank you and God bless," the massage read partly
