Mr Bright Idjerhefere, who is the public relations officer, went on to say that Nigeria had always viewed diversity as a “valuable asset”. “We, as the adherents of an ancient tradition that is based on respect for thoughts, beliefs and basic human rights, regard the presence in our country of different religions and cultures as a valuable asset. “This understanding, which constitutes the basis of our nation’s peace, security, unity and solidarity, is our greatest power and also enables our peaceful co-existence as a nation” he said.

“I pray that Christmas, celebrated by Nigerians from different denominations, traditions and churches in line with their beliefs, will lead to the strengthening of the climate of solidarity in the country. I wish Nigeria and the whole Christian world a Merry Christmas.” said Mr. Egbo, the secretary.

Delta Peoples Alliance charged the Christian community in Nigeria to use the celebration of Christmas to pray for peace and stability in the country.
