Speaker of the Nasarawa State House of Assembly, Dr Danladi Jatau, has urged Nigerians to protect and promote their cultural heritage for future generations and peace.
He said this would also help prevent Nigerian cultures from fading into extinction.
Jatau made the call on Saturday during the traditional wedding of his daughter, Esther Akayi Danladi, and Mr Josiah Esla.
He noted that embracing cultural traditions is essential for promoting peace and unity in the society.
“I urge all ethnic groups to sustain and promote their cultures at every opportunity.
“If we fail to promote our culture, one day we may wake up to find it lost,” he warned.
Jatau also called on the people to continue to support Gov. Abdullahi Sule’s administration for sustained development.
The speaker prayed for God’s protection and safe travels for all guests returning to their destinations.
Mr Josiah Esla, the groom, expressed gratitude to God for the success of the traditional wedding.
“We are truly happy and overwhelmed to have completed our traditional wedding today,” he said.(NAN)
