The Kaduna Metropolitan Choir, on Sunday, held a music concert to spread the message of love and hope, that Nigerians would come out of the current hardship being experienced across the country.
Mr Samuel Yatai, leader of the choir, said during the event in Kaduna, that the annual concert brings together talented choristers from different denominations, united by their passion for music and worship.
Yatai explained that the concert was organised by the Non-Denominational Christian Choir Association of Nigerian, with the theme, “Behold God is Doing a New Thing in Your Life.”
He said that the goal was to spread the message of love and hope through music.
He expressed hope that God would see Nigerians through the challenging times of hardship, and heightened insecurity.
He said: “Despite the difficulties, we remain hopeful and optimistic that with God’s guidance and mercy, our country will soon become one of the most peaceful nations in the world.
“We trust in God’s plan and provisions for our lives and our nation.
“As we strive for good governance, let us remember our civic duty and responsibility.”
He explained that the concert was a culmination of months of hard work, dedication, and team work to spread the message of love, hope and unity through music.
“We are thrilled to share this unforgettable experience with you, and we pray that music will inspire, uplift, and bless you.
“Let the melodies transport you to a place of joy, hope, and spiritual renewal,” Yatai said.
He urged Nigerians to pray for leaders and participate in governance processes for the peace and well-being of all, as directed by God.
He disclosed that to further spread the word of God, His message of love, hope and salvation, the metropolitan choir would embark on evangelism outreach to Adamawa.
He said that the outreach which would hold from Nov.1 to Nov. 3 was organised by the Non-Denominational Christian Choir Association of Nigeria, Kaduna State Chapter, in collaboration with other state chapters.
“This outreach aims at sharing the gospel through music, fostering unity among Nigerians, and providing spiritual enrichment.
“We urge you all to join us in this noble endeavour. Together, let’s spread the message of love, hope and salvation.
“We believe that with your support, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of many,” the leader added.
The Chairman of the event, Rev. Joseph Hayap, described music as an “instrument of unity” and a universal language that transcends ethnic, race and other socio-cultural boundaries.
Hayab, who is the immediate past Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria in Kaduna State, also said that music “can unite and bring people together.
“With music, people would forget their differences and dance to the same tune.”
As a remedy for hardship, the cleric said that music could be used to bring people together to speak in one language, one voice and encourage one another.
“It is time to end the division, segregation and confusion, everybody has a role to play in uniting this country.
“When you look at music, it has different tones which we need to put all together to come up with a fantastic melody,” Hayab said. (NAN)
