Reverend Samson Olasupo Ayokunle, former President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), has urged the Nigerian government to promptly address the pressing issues of hunger, insecurity, and inflation. Addressing journalists in Ibadan, Ayokunle highlighted that the removal of the subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit has exacerbated hunger and living costs across the nation.
He emphasized the need for determined leaders who are committed to tackling insecurity and other social problems, stating that it is now challenging for Nigerians to survive economically. Ayokunle called on President Bola Tinubu to take decisive actions to tackle the country's problems, asserting that a more determined leadership is necessary.
He also noted that with more government resources, the administration would likely perform better in providing quality education to the populace. Ayokunle affirmed that while the removal of the subsidy was a step in the right direction, the average Nigerian salary has plummeted, making it difficult for workers to make ends meet.
He concluded by expressing faith in Nigeria's resilience in 2027, urging the public to believe in the country's potential.
