The wife of Lagos State Governor, Dr Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu, on Thursday, admonished Christians from all denominations to embrace peace and unity for the progress of Nigeria.
She added that the theme was chosen to signify the act of laying down one’s crown and submitting to worship which, according to her, was the essence of the gathering.
Speaking about the event, Sanwo-Olu said, “The initiative started as a platform for the First Family, Graceful Ladies, and members of the Committee of Wives of Lagos State Officials, which is also chaired by me to come together in collaboration with the five blocs of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Lagos State chapter.
“This is with the view to worshipping and appreciating God on a consistent basis for His faithfulness and lovingkindness and also to serve as an avenue to pray for good governance, peace, and development of Lagos State.”All rights reserved.
