The Social Democratic Party (SDP) urges Tarabans not to succumb to misery in spite of the hardship and agony they face under the PDP lead government in the state but use the occasion of Christmas, the celebration of the coming of Jesus Christ to strengthen their hope for a brighter future for Taraba State.
The SDP is saddened that thousands of Tarabans cannot afford the necessities to celebrate, many could not travel to meet with their loved ones due to economic hardship and those who did are facing harrowing life-discounting experiences, with several families stranded on the highways on account of dilapidated roads and worsening insecurity under the suffocating PDP government in the state.
This was contained in a statement by Uban Gayya Mass Movement23 to Apex News Exclusive.
It is distressing that while people in other parts of the world where governments care for citizens, are celebrating with joy, Nigerians are marking Christmas in utter despondency under the APC and its corrupt leaders.
More heartbreaking is the fact that Nigerians watch in despair as their purchasing power constantly fall due to the anti-people economic policies of the APC administration resulting in hyper-inflation and rapidly depreciating currency.
The PDP in Taraba has succeeded in turning the state, once reputed as a state of happiest people and one of the into the poverty capital of Nigeria and one of the most insecure places to live in.
However, our Party the SDP urges Tarabans not to lose hope but use the occasion of Christmas, which marks the redemptive purpose of God towards mankind and our state in particular to rekindle their resolve for a new dawn under a purposeful, caring and affectionate SDP leadership, come May 29, 2023.
We must therefore leverage on the message of hope and God’s undying love which Christmas brings to bond us together despite our challenges; show love, share with one another and maintain a united front in the mission to rescue our state from the stranglehold of the PDP.
The SDP felicitates with Tarabans and wishes them Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year ahead.
