Similarly , the Catholic Archbishop of Kaduna Diocese, Most Rev Matthew Ndagoso , has urged Christians to sustain the change of heart experienced during the Lent season in preparation for Easter by starting to build a new Nigeria. He stated that Nigeria today needs a radical change of structures, especially of governance adding that the task of Nigeria regaining its lost glory is one that is incumbent on all Nigerians.
