PROF. PATRICK DAKUM CONGRATULATES CHRISTIANS ON GOOD FRIDAY AND CALLS ON THEM TO ABIDE BY THE ESSENCE OF CHRIST'S SACRIFICE

The Chief Executive Officer, Institute of Human Virology Nigeria, IHVN, Professor Patrick Sunday Dakum, has congratulated Christians as they mark the 2025 Good Friday, and called on them to perpetually value and abide by the sacrifice made by Christ for the redemption of mankind from sin. 

Dakum said Good Friday is commemorating the death of Christ which took place over two thousand years ago and his resurrection on Easter Monday, saying there is no point mourning and frowning because Christ is already seated at the Right Hand side of God where he has been interceding for us and granting all that we need for godliness and life; saying commemorating Christ's death does not make us acceptable to him, but believing in his death and resurrection and in his blood that washes our sins from a sincere heart, and whole heartedly all the time just as Christ said, "It's not him that call me Lord Lord will enter my Father's kingdom, but he that does his will" Matthew 7:21.  

Dakum admonished Christians to use the Good Friday to reminisce over their lives and relationship with God and make amends where necessary and build also on where there is fruitful growth as we are commanded by Apostle Peter saying, "Giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; to virtue knowledge; And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and patience godliness; And to godliness brotherly kindness and to brotherly kindness charity" 2Peter 1:5-7. 

He reminded them that Christians are the light and salt of the earth, and that they should endeavour to shine that light anywhere they are, and not to be part of the corrupt system and sin killing the country and destroying the world. 

Dakum beseeches Christians to use the Good Friday to sincerely, ardently and humbly intercede for the country and our leaders both traditional, spiritual and the political for unity, peace, progress and prosperity to thrive and for God to grant them the courage, wisdom, knowledge and understanding to discharge their duties with verity and patriotism in the fear of God. 

He appeals for special prayers for Plateau, Benue, Zamfara and all other states under attacks for God's divine intervention for the restoration of security and peace. 

Dakum wishes all Christians a hitch free and successful Good Friday.

HON. KOMSOL ALPHONSUS LONGGAP STANDS IN SOLIDARITY WITH GOV. CALEB MUTFWANG ON THE SECURITY CHALLENGES IN PLATEAU STATE

In light of the ongoing security challenges confronting our dear Plateau State, I wish to publicly express my heartfelt concern and solidarity with His Excellency, Barr. Caleb Mutfwang, Governor of Plateau State, and with every citizen who has been affected by the unfortunate incidents of violence, displacement, and unrest.

This is a time for unity not division. While we may belong to different political platforms, I believe strongly that the safety, peace, and welfare of our people must always come first. No political difference is greater than the shared pain and anxiety of our people during these times.

I commend Governor Mutfwang for the courage and resilience he has continued to show in addressing these deeply troubling issues. I fully recognize the weight of leadership in times like these, and I want to assure His Excellency of my unrelenting support in all efforts geared toward restoring lasting peace and security in Plateau State.

We owe it to our people to rise above party lines and work hand-in-hand for the collective good. My prayers remain with all affected families, and I call on all stakeholders political, religious, and traditional—to come together in one voice and one spirit to protect the soul of our land.

Together, we will overcome. Plateau will rise again.
