The leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele has cautioned President Bola Tinubu against the ongoing protests, stating that Nigerians are bitter and hungry.
He equally advised Tinubu to sack his ministers and aides because they were problematic to his government.
In a statement signed by his media aide, Osho Oluwatosin, Primate Ayodele made it known that the ongoing protest is not because of Tinubu alone but because the incompetency of his ministers and aides contributed greatly to the protest.
He stated that the country is bleeding and all Tinubu needs to do is reduce the price of foodstuff, petrol, and power to stop Nigerians from complaining.
He stated that if the protest continued, the country would collapse. The prophet mentioned that Senate president, Godswill Akpabio is also a problem of President Tinubu.
‘’The country is bleeding, he should reduce the price of foodstuff, Power, and petrol and he will see that people will not bother about anything. They are mocking his government and his ministers are not even helping him. Even the senate president is a problem to his administration because he doesn’t coordinate well if not, there shouldn’t be anything like protest.
‘’If this protest continues, it will spoil the betterment of the government, all he needs to improve is light, fuel, and food but he is not listening. I think there is something in that seat of power that makes these presidents deaf. It’s as if there is a force hovering over the country. If this gets to 10 days. The country will collapse. Do not joke with these people.’’
The prophet who had foretold the current economic hardship stated that the bad of this government could be turned around for good if the government listened to instructions.
‘’I had said what we will experience if we vote for bad government but we can turn this bad to good by listening to good advice. Those you feel hate you don’t hate you, they are only telling you the truth. They spoke about 40,000 rice but there are no modalities to it. Don’t wait till the whole thing spoils.’’
While reacting to Nyesom Wike’s comment alleging that a senator is part of those sponsoring the protest, Primate Ayodele stated that Nigerians and forefathers of the country are angry with the current administration.
He explained that people like Wike, traditional rulers, and politicians are deceiving President Tinubu while urging him to shun deceivers and focus on reality. He urged the president to stop giving materials to governors for ordinary Nigerians because they are corrupt and won’t help matters.
‘’People are deceiving you too much, the unofficial governor of Abuja, your daughter, and all these traditional rulers are all deceiving you. Listen to the voice of common men, these obas didn’t vote for you, listen to those who spent their time to vote for you. The protest is a wrong signal, it doesn’t take you anything to solve this economic catastrophe. The honourables, senators, and governors are to be blamed also, they are not helping the situation, it is not the federal government alone. The president should stop giving them materials for the common Nigerians.
‘’Nobody is instigating anything, everyone is angry including the forefathers of this nation like Awolowo, Nnamdi Azikwe, Tafawa Balewa, Anthony Enahoro, and MKO Abiola.’’
