OGUN, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)- Primate Elijah Ayodele, the head of the INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, has urged President Bola Tinubu to address Nigeria’s economic problems, emphasizing that he shouldn’t wait until his people begin stoning him.

He urged the President not to wait till people start stoning him and every politician before realizing that he needs to get to work.
“If Tinubu doesn’t get to work immediately and find a way to solve our economic issues, there will be massive protests. The people are crying already, salary earners are not satisfied and it will get to a state where governors will not be able to pay salaries again.
“Don’t wait till they start stoning you and every politician before working, you need to do something now; there is serious hunger in the land. It will also affect some African nations. The president should do the needful,” he said.
During the release of his 2024 prophecies, Primate Ayodele also recommended five areas for President Tinubu to focus on.
He said: “Government of Nigeria must work on five things in 2024 which can make the country to be great: Stable light, Improve security and buy more weapons, Development of infrastructural facilities, Agriculture (plenty of food) and Create employment.’’
