In terms of human capital, everything is on standstill, in terms of judiciary, it\u2019s something else. We are still seeing things that we can\u2019t be proud of despite being 64 years old.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur democracy has been destroyed, what we have is democracy of failure, starvation, bondage, difficulty. Nigerians have voted for leaders with no conscience. We have been praying but it doesn\u2019t look like this country will get better.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>While speaking on the current administration, Primate Ayodele made it known that the government is confused and has no fear of God.<\/p>\n<p>He also called on the government to embark on seven things to restore hope to the people.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019The present government is confused; they don\u2019t have the fear of God and don\u2019t understand why they are ruling. Nigeria @ 64 is nothing to celebrate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe government should do seven things that include stable electricity, educational reforms, Restructuring, Judiciary reforms, economic reforms, security and total overhauling of our petroleum ministry to bring back hope.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Explaining further, Primate Ayodele noted that a serious government leading a country that is 64 years old will not allow mediocrity and would let go of any unserious minister or appointee.<\/p>\n<p>He frowned at the EFCC chairman for failing to arrest the former governor of Kogi state, Yahaya Bello but was quick to go after ordinary Nigerians that have committed lesser offences.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019A serious government leading a nation that is 64 years old would sack people in the oil sector, including NNPC GMD, Mele Kyari, Minister of Petroleum and others in the sector. We have ministries that are not performing, the President should remove their leaders.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019For months, EFCC has been trailing Yahaya Bello all to no avail but if it is an ordinary Nigerian, he or she would have been arrested and paraded.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt appears the EFCC chairman doesn\u2019t know his job too, the president should find something to do if not, we will keep encouraging corruption,\u2019\u2019 he stated.<\/p>\n<p>In the same vein, Primate Ayodele blasted the national assembly for not working towards achieving success in the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019The national assembly has also failed, they are just going there to relax, President Tinubu should improve and enhance workers welfare.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur sectors are not doing well, including communications, we don\u2019t have anything to celebrate at 64, it\u2019s a period to evaluate what we have done so far. It\u2019s a time of sober reflection.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is hunger in the land, a bag of rice isn\u2019t affordable anymore. At 64, a fertile land has failed in agriculture. We have voted for the wrong choice and of course, the result of that will be wrong. It\u2019s 64 years of sadness, without achievement, and failure,\u2019\u2019 he added.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Primate Ayodele expressed disappointment in the religious sector, especially Christian leaders who are fond of hiding the true situations of things with \u2018all is well\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>The prophet noted that all pastors have been compromised and what they do now is fashion.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019The religious sector too has failed, all the pastors have failed. We have been compromised and all we know how to say is \u2018All is well\u2019 but it is not. We only have fashion pastors, they don\u2019t talk when they are supposed to talk apart from: \u2018All is well\u2019\u2019\u2019, he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About Nigeria Follow Africa-Press<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
