Anambra governor’s wife, Mrs Nonye Soludo, has reaffirmed her position on love as the most valid form of communication for humanity’s collective prosperity.
Mrs Soludo who made this known in a message released in Awka to mark this year’s Ash Wednesday and Valentine’s Day, explained that humanity should embrace the principal ideals of love to achieve peace and development.
The governor’s wife, while noting that the feast of Ash Wednesday calls everyone to compassionate action, explained that by understanding that life devoid of love is empty, man must look up to Jesus Christ as the most perfect example of what a life of impact should look like.
Mrs Soludo, who described the coincidence of this year’s Ash Wednesday and Valentine’s Day as special, pointed out that it is a firm call on mankind to understand that love outweighs every other injunction from God.
The Anambra first lady further stated that both events call for sober reflection, and admonished those who may want to use the occasions for the wrong intentions to understand the primary essence of both feasts and why they just coincided.
She called for spiritual reconciliation with God and humanity and urged everyone to use the Lenten season to pray for a better Nigeria.
Mrs Soludo also appealed to Ndi Anambra to continue to pray for the state’s progress, unity, and peace, and also for the current administration, insisting that a better Anambra State is everyone’s responsibility.
Extending the best Valentine’s Day wishes to all Anambra youths and families, Mrs Soludo urged them to think more about what love can achieve than what hate can destroy.
