She also urged them to show love to the less privileged by sharing whatever they have, adding that the essence of Christmas was sharing love with one another.

” You must not see the season as just for eating rice and chicken alone, you must share whatever you have with those that are less privileged,’’ she said.

She further advised the children to take their studies seriously in the new year while obeying their parents at all times.

“I am hopeful that the coming year will be better and Nigeria as a nation will recover from its economic loss,” she said.
