Easter: Alo felicitates Christians, condoles Tinubu on Plateau attack

Renowned cleric and Planter of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC), Adamimogo Grace of Mercy Prayer Mountain Worldwide, Prophet Sam Olu Alo, has extended warm Easter greetings to Christians across Nigeria and commiserated with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over the recent attack in Plateau State.

In a statement issued during a church programme titled “God of Elijah,” held from April 3 to 5, 2026, at Adamimogo Jesus City, Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos, and signed by his Personal Assistant, Deji Ogunbusuyi, the cleric described Easter as a sacred period symbolising the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and a time for deep reflection on faith, sacrifice, and hope.

Prophet Alo urged Christians to embrace the virtues of love, compassion, and unity, noting that these values are essential for national growth and stability.

He also expressed deep sorrow over the killing of innocent lives following the recent attack in Jos, Plateau State, describing the incident as a painful reminder of the persistent security challenges facing the country.

“We extend our warmest greetings and heartfelt felicitations to all Nigerian Christians as they continue in their sacred observances,” he said. “This solemn period serves as a reminder of the virtues of love, compassion, and unity, which are essential for the growth and stability of our nation.”

Condoling President Tinubu, the Plateau State Government, and families of the victims, the cleric said, “We share in your grief and stand in solidarity with all those affected during this difficult time.”

He called on security agencies to intensify efforts to bring perpetrators to justice and restore peace in affected communities, while urging Nigerians to remain united and vigilant.

“As Nigerian Christians mark this sacred season, may the lessons of sacrifice, renewal, and hope inspire us all to work towards a more peaceful, secure, and prosperous nation,” he added.

Prophet Alo also sent goodwill messages to the Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji, and other South-West governors, encouraging them to continue delivering the dividends of democracy to their citizens.

He concluded with prayers for Nigeria’s leaders and citizens, asking God to bless and protect the nation, while praying for the repose of the souls of the departed.
