Hardship: It’s Time To Speak Up – Olu Alo Urges Southwest Leaders

Renowned cleric and Planter of Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) Adamimogo Grace of Mercy Prayer Mountain Worldwide, Prophet Sam Olu Alo, has charged Southwest leaders to tell President Bola Ahmed Tinubu the hard truth about the current hardship faced by Nigerians. He urged all Southwest stakeholders to speak up to avert crises, particularly during this era of economic challenges.

Speaking on a radio program on Adamimogo FM, Alo said all stakeholders in Yorubaland, including Christian and Muslim bodies, as well as those with direct access to the President, should meet with him and let him know what Nigerians are going through.

He said, “The Ooni of Ife should convene a meeting with all Obas in the Southwest and choose a delegation to meet Tinubu at Aso Rock.

“CAN President Pastor Samuel Oladele, Pastor Adeboye of RCCG, and other respected men of God should also lead a delegation of clerics to meet President Tinubu in Abuja to express how deeply Nigerians are suffering.”

According to him, President Tinubu is not a wicked person, but he has a listening ear to heed advice and take necessary steps to provide solutions to the problems.

He stated that President Tinubu needs prayers because it seems some past Nigerian leaders, who had good intentions, failed to achieve them once they entered Aso Rock.

The cleric recalled that President Tinubu had once assured Nigerians to be patient, saying that relief was on the way, but it seems the promise is yet to be fulfilled.

Alo called for a change in the leadership of NNPC, stating that for Tinubu to succeed and for Nigerians to be content with his administration, there is a need to either reform NNPC or scrap it entirely as it is one of the root causes of Nigeria’s problems.

Despite the economic hardship, Nigerians still support President Tinubu. Many graduates now regret going to school because those who didn’t attend are doing better than them.

“Farm produce is rotting in some areas due to a lack of good roads for transporting the products.

“Regarding the minimum wage, I once prophesied to Nigerian workers that even if N500,000 is given as the minimum wage, it still won’t be enough. There is no amount of minimum wage that will bring relief to workers. What they should focus on is how the prices of goods and services can be reduced to the barest minimum.”

He, however, urged Nigerians to be patient and give Tinubu time to address the issues, stating that protests or agitation are not the best solutions to the current challenges.
