“There is no renewed hope anywhere yet from this government; the hope we need is the one that manifests and turns life around.
“There is no essential commodity that is cheap and affordable for the common man. It’s a wrong statement to say this administration has restored hope in the minds of Nigerians.
“This government must be honest with itself, there is no hope yet at all.’’
These are the views of the leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, while reacting to President Bola Tinubu who said recently that Nigeria has stopped bleeding due to the reforms his administration has been able to carry out.
Primate Ayodele said that the President is being deceived by people around him, saying that things are getting worse every day and Nigerians are languishing in pain due to the economic hardship the administration brought upon them.
According to him, Nigerians can’t afford to buy essential commodities because of inflation.
‘’Nigeria is still bleeding. It may not affect the rich but every day, people are crying because of how bad things are.
“Tinubu should do a survey of prices of commodities in the market and see how bad things are for Nigerians. “People are in anguish, and Tinubu must not allow anyone deceive him that it is well, but it is not yet well.
“People can’t afford a three-square meal, it’s getting worse every day. “Don’t be deceived at all; people are in serious pain except those who are in government.’’
The cleric said that he spends more money to feed more than 7,000 people monthly and that the standard of living has dropped drastically.
‘’I am close to the grass root and I know how much I spend to support the masses just to feed. I feed more than 7,000 of them monthly.
“Tinubu should not celebrate anything because Nigerians are suffering. The cost of living has increased; the standard of living has dropped drastically. Don’t be deceived, people are sad.”
