The Leader of the pan-Yoruba socio-cultural and socio-political organisation, Afenifere, Reuben Fasoranti, on Friday, felicitated with Nigerians as they celebrate yuletide and the upcoming year 2025.
Fasoranti, in a statement by the association’s National Publicity Secretary, Jare Ajayi, in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, expressed hope for better life for Nigerians soonest.
He said, “As we revel in the festive air that yuletide brings and we inch gradually into the new year, I pray that the Almighty God comforts us in our worrying moments, strengthens us where and when we are weak, and lightens our dark havens.
“I also want to express hope and a better life for Nigerians soonest.”
The Afenifere leader further encouraged Nigerians and assured them that the various policies of President Bola Tinubu’s government would be beneficial to the people within the shortest time possible.
The nonagenarian added that the coming year promises a fresh air of good living for Nigerians.
He, however, sympathised with the families of those who lost their lives in Ibadan, Okija in Anambra State, and Abuja last week, praying for the quick recovery of those who sustained injuries during the stampede that occurred in those places.
“Our hearts are with the families of the victims of these incidents. We pray that the Almighty God will avail them the fortitude to bear the losses, heal the wounded, and have mercy on the souls of those who died in the process,” he stated.
