Dr Ekpenyong Greets Christians On Easter Celebration, Calls for Ultimate Sacrifice at all times
Cross River State Commissioner for Health, Dr Janet Ekpenyong has called on Christians to at all times practice selflessness and practical sacrificial living in order to actualize desired growth and development in the state .
Dr Ekpenyong in an easter message charged christians to emulate the sacrificial and exemplary lifestyle of Jesus in order to promote ethical growth and development especially at a moment like this where many are still yet to heal from the last general elections.
she noted that contributory enhancement and unity of the people will promote an effectual living and worthy state of affairs in the state which will guarantee fairness, equity and progress in the state.
she asked all to jointly pray for the success of the present administration and that of the incoming one as she noted that we only have one state which we can be proud off, laying a foundation for the next generation to benefit from.
“Cross river state is blessed with all categories of experts with diversed specialization in the health, environmental, social and scientific background, as a state we can achieve all we wish to if only we lay aside tribal, political and sectoral differences .
If we all can let go of our differences and make tangible sacrifices just as the one Jesus made on the cross, we will be having the most resourceful time of our nations history.
As we celebrate, I encourage all to do that with all sense of causiousness, eat and celebrate healthily and continue to promote quality health care for all.
We are aware of various diseases that are common in this period, I want to call on all to also help and be their brothers keepers in referring health emergencies to appropriate facilities and seeking first hand health services in Government approved facilities.
Once again, Happy Easter to all
