Group Managing Director/CEO of UAC of Nigeria Plc, Mr. Larry Ettah, has urged Nigerians to imbibe the lessons of the season, which are powerful, deep and fundamental.

Ettah gave the charge in his 2013 Christmas message to the employees of the company.
Ettah maintained that the essence of Christmas remain the birth, reign, teachings and mission of Jesus Christ, who not only personified but embodied humility, service, sacrifice, triumph and salvation for mankind. These virtues, according to him, are what should be allowed to guide people’s thoughts and actions.
“In a world where strife and chaos seem to tower over good sense and order, we cannot pretend that the world does not need the grains of the season’s lessons even now than ever. No one can fault Christ’s insistent call for simplicity, restraint and contentment in a world that has become an apparent vanity fair. As we celebrate Christmas and look forward to the New Year, we must remember that the lessons of the season are still as relevant and timely today as Christ intended them for humanity centuries ago. We must seek to live together in harmony and do unto others what we want them to do unto us” he said.
Ettah explained that at UACN, Christmas offers an opportunity to ponder, reflect and re-assess their activities within the year.
According to him, the company has had an eventful year as it strives to come to terms with the demands of its business and maintained that its performance has given them strong confidence that they would achieve their projections.
“Our drive to adopt strategic partnership as a model for growing our business has gained significant traction. Today, our strategic partners are Tiger Brands Limited in UAC Foods Limited, Imperial Logistics in MDS Logistics and Famous Brands in UAC Restaurants. We have been proactive in the face of present and emerging threats to our business by taking concrete steps to de-risk our operations,” Ettah said.
