Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Primate of the Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, Most Reverend Henry Ndukuba, has urged Nigerians to be patient with the President Bola Tinubu-led administration.<\/p>\n

Ndukuba, who addressed newsmen on Sunday in Abuja on hardship and insecurity in the country, said that the problems in Nigeria would take 10 to 20 years to be fixed.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to appeal to Nigerians to exercise patience by giving this government more time to do what they said they would do.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the problem that we have, it\u2019s not something that can be solved within a day, one month, or one year. The magnitude of our problems will take us another 10 to 20 years to deal with them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

On insecurity, the cleric decried the constant attacks in some parts of the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cI call on the government and statutory security agencies to rise to their responsibilities of protecting the lives and property of the citizenry, giving heed to the call for effective community policing,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The clergyman said further: \u201cI want to appeal to the leadership of NLC to go into negotiation rather than going on strike. Let them go back to the roundtable. We are pleading with the government to do the needful by engaging with the leadership of the NLC to resolve the issues amicably.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople are hungry, and a hungry man is an angry man. We can\u2019t tell them not to express themselves. Nigerians are not asking for too much. They are asking for food, security, infrastructure such as roads, and a constant power supply for them to live and do their economic activities.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ndukuba emphasised the need for Nigerians to engage in subsistence farming by using the available land within their premises for farming.<\/p>\n

This, according to him, will reduce the hunger and suffering affecting the citizens.<\/p>\n

\u201cNigerians are hardworking and can labour to feed their families if encouraged. There is a need for us to encourage Nigerians to go back to farming on any available land around their houses to get basic food.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe wealth of this country has been captured and hijacked by a few elites. In a situation where a few are richer than the whole nation, the wealth is not properly distributed.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very dangerous. We need to see what can be done to salvage this nation together,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The cleric urged Christians to pray for peace in the country, stressing that religion should be part of the solution to societal problems and not the cause of their problems.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are trusting God that these challenges will be resolved in no distant time,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
