Further exploring the significance of the season, he said it is to remind Christians of the victory and power over evil and death, which Jesus Christ won for them by dying on the cross and also resurrecting from the dead.

“Let’s all continue to shun sinful acts as there is life after death and the resurrection of Jesus Christ has given us hope for victory over death and evil, and also brought wellbeing to life,” he advised the Christians.
