Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Senior Advocate of Nigeria, SAN, Mike Ozekhome, has described the current hardship in the country as renewed poverty and not the Renewed Hope mantra of President Bola Tinubu.<\/p>\n

Ozekhome lamented that the current situation in Nigeria is poverty at a higher scale.<\/p>\n

Featuring on Channels Television\u2019s Politics Today, on Tuesday, the senior advocate lamented that things have never been this bad.<\/p>\n

According to Ozekhome: \u201cThis is not renewed hope but renewed poverty, though we have been having poverty before but it\u2019s now renewed on a higher scale.<\/p>\n

\u201cGoing back to the drawing board, this government should try to rethink outside the box, bring about new innovations.<\/p>\n

\u201cLook at what is going on in Argentina and other countries, this government should not think that the mere removal of subsidy was a magical wand we were looking for, I knew it would not work.<\/p>\n

\u201cHunger does not have colour, a hungry man is an angry man and that is why these continued demonstrations are coming up from Ibadan to Osogbo; from Kano to Owerri, and you are saying these are sponsored?<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the house is on fire, the blind will know because they will fill it; the lame will know because he will hear about it, the dumb will know because they will feel the heat. Let\u2019s not pretend it has never been this bad.\u201d<\/p>\n
