Yinka Kofile, the head of the Ijemo council of chiefs, has given his take on the hardships currently in the Nigerian economy.
The economic hardships were said to have emanated from the removal of fuel subsidies by the current administration, led by Bola Tinubu.
Following this development, several Nigerians took to the streets to express their grievances regarding the hike in the prices of commodities and the rising inflation level. …CONTINUE READING
In respect to this, Nigerian politicians have implored citizens to persevere with the current administration, as there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.
However, Nigerians have disclosed their plans to embark on a nationwide protest.
In a video posted by TVC News, Yinka Kofile urged Nigerians to embrace peace and dialogue with the government, as violence and protests are of no benefit to anyone.
He also maintained that if Nigeria had experienced what happened in Kenya, every citizen would have been dead.
According to the video, “If what happened in Kenya had happened in Nigeria, we would have all been dead by now.”.

If the protests can only solve Nigerian issue,then let’s protests, these suffering is too much
Let the protest begin
If it solve Nigeria hardship
Let the protest begin.
What are we protesting for, it sit the wrong appointed ministers people who can’t defend their occupancy position all our elders is guilty in corruption say bye bye for Nigeria. My final say nothing exist as this country call Nig.
I don’t think the leaders of this very country have brain at all , follow by the dead and the high cost of living in the country poor Nigerians say they want let so call government know how they feel but government says they shouldn’t.
Now where is the law of freedom of speech they should know that big eyes are watching them thank you.
Pls what effort has the government made to ensure the people they are governing on are secure, empowered, provided for and well cater for.
People are suffering and dieing you keep saying they should be patient for how long shall we continue in this mess. Enough is enough.
It’s a shame on any leadership that could not make her people well comfortable.
Nigerians are suffering we need God fearing leaders who have genuine love and the interest of the people of her nation.
Peace to Nigeria.
Na dose older fools wey we get make this country hard , cos of living wan kill the living we’re living in a wicked world I hate Yourba ladders
Fully in support of the protest, enough of the suffering and smiling
There’s no doubt the police and the military would have opened fire on the innocent armless and helpless civilian , supposing Kenya Government were that of Nigeria. But the truth is Nigerians are tired of living like zombie in the mist of abundance where few heartless witches are taking others for guaranteed. Know it well Sir Nigerians are no more afraid of death. If Nigerians stay at home for fear of death, we will all die of hunger, for 25 years the privileged class has been telling us to be petient, it’s expedient therefore Nigerians go out there and die a free men for there common patrimony denied them for a long time. YES we all know. Endsas is still warning us but we can not all die cowards. We have died many times, now is our death come. The protest will be peaceful. But will the clueless government listen to the please and demands of the people? By the time Nigerian police and military must have eliminated 5 million Nigerians, they will come back to their senses and freedom must surely come.
Every kingdom that is against the kingdom God in Nigeria will be demolished in Jesus name.
The kingdom of God will rise in Nigeria and there shall be no more crisis, tribalism, religious fight, scarcity, inflation, death …..
We shall be called a blessed nation, the fear of God will rule.
I hope for a peaceful and successful resolution to the protest. Amen.
Amen
Your are feeding by your church members even the offering money and the tite belong to you that why you say so Remember that Israel we are imitating today is fighting for their common right, so pastor if you don’t know what to say enter for prayer so true your prayer God shall riblets us from the sins of Nigeria.
It’s time for every Nigerian should turn to God and do God will Muslim Cristian every body should submitive to God totally, what is happening only God can save, because no one is reliable anymore ,even we that we call our self youths, we all taken advantage of each other, well if we can manage our self for peace protes let give it a trial , but I’m afraid ?
am angry with all my fellow Nigerians concerning this protest, because i don’t think these our puppet leaders have anything to do with us with the way they behaves, as they are getting old to leave office, they replaced themselves with their children, meaning they have inherited those positions, if am among the organizing board, i will just call my people lead them to the Sea where we have Chevron,shell,Agip, Mobil, Daewoo,jad platforms and pipelines and launch all of them to pieces with rpg launcher, so that we will know that no oil company is functioning in this country, before we will start the killings of our stupid leaders, no airport will be opened talkless of moving plane, then, they will now know that we mean what we are doing, my name is Johnson villarro thanks.
What are we living for, if it’s means to die let all man die than to work like an elephant and eat like an ant…
“PROTESTENDBADGOVERNMETINNIGERIA”
May God help us in Nigeria. All of us know that these leader were not elected by Nigerian. But at least they should have mercy now. They are all like ghost. Maybe they don’t have human blood in there veins. Because they didn’t know human fillings. END BAD GOVERNMENT IN NIGERIA. Let’s fight for our right
I expect the government of the to do the needful before the slated date of the protest, so that people can throw away the idea of the protest
If the leadership in Nigeria a living right with all principle not hijacked office or election results accepting or doing the people choice, we all will not be affair of protest, the people have right to protest..
If we can have this strong spirit and seek for God’s face and intervention in this nation it will yield more results than going out there to submit ourselves to death unprepared. In agreement with the nation wide protest if we can all sit at home for a day or two and cry unto God for mercy and healing upon our land, I strongly believe that he will hear us, some battles are fought and won indoors. Look the leaders don’t care about you protesting or not they will rather device means of eliminating you remember when one dies, he/she will not be there to tell whether Tinubu steps down or not or fuel price returned to #80 or not. Be well guilded.
No going back
