A christian leader, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has said that President Bola Tinubu’s administration won’t listen to the cries of Nigerians if the planned 10 days nationwide protest fails to hold.

Ayodele, who is the leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, believed that the planned protest would be a wake-up call for Tinubu, legislators, and governors.

In a statement by his spokesman, Oluwatosin Osho, Ayodele said Tinubu’s administration had not done enough to curb hardship and hunger in Nigeria, as such the only way the government could feel the pains of the people was through protest.

According to him, he is not encouraging protest because it is not the solution to the current hardship, but only a wake-up call for the government to wake up.

“It will be a form of check and balance. This government has not done well to reduce the hardship in the country. Nigerians are tired but I won’t encourage protest; but there is no way this government will listen if such doesn’t happen.’’

He called on protesters to be peaceful in their approaches and avoid violence in order not to put the country in a state of anarchy.

‘’I also want to urge protesters not to put the country into a state of anarchy; they should be civil and peaceful in their approaches to the government,” he added.
