The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) has charged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the newly appointed ministers to come up with measures to ameliorate the hardships caused by the removal of fuel subsidy by the federal government.
PFN’s national president, Bishop Francis Wale Oke who stated this yesterday when he addressed newsmen on the state of the nation after a three-day retreat of the organization in Ibadan, Oyo State said what Nigerians want to see are solutions to their challenges.
He lamented that Nigerians had been in pain in the last eight years, saying it has been traumatic from kidnapping, banditry and terrible corruption with the economic crisis, saying that Nigerians were battling with so much pains.
He called on the President and the ministers to relieve Nigerians from their pains and not add to it.
The clergyman said, “Be conscious of the fact that they have been traumatised in the past. Let us apply olive oil, let us look at the issues of insecurity, corruption and relieve Nigerians of their pains do not add to it.
“The President and the new cabinet members should fight insecurity, economic wars for survival. Fight the wars, don’t wage war against Nigeria. Whether they voted for you or they did not vote for you, now politics is over, governance should begin.
“Let’s bring everybody together to fight the wars for survival. We should not add to their pains, you should fight their wars.
“Don’t make any set of people as your target whether as a people, tribe or religion or based on ideology. This is over, bring everybody together to fight the wars as you are now the father of everybody.
“We are praying that you succeed. And to all Nigerians, the God who has been with us in the past and knows we are still having challenges, He is still on the throne. He is still with us.
“In fact, there is hope. Since we still live means there is hope. Nigeria is still one nation. Let’s join hands together to build virile nation and move forward.”
