The National Vice President, South-West, Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, Archbishop John Osa-Oni has upbraided President Muhammadu Buhari over the present situation the country has found itself both security and economy-wise. John noted that the economy of the nation has collapsed under "this government who came to power on the mantra of change." noting that the regime would have stated the manner of change so Nigerians could brace up.
More so John revealed that the Christain body has mentioned that Nigerians could bearly live on their income and corruption had become 'somewhat institutional'.
The PFN, however, pleaded with the present government not to tear the country apart before leaving office.
In part of the statement by John Osa-Oni it reads; “This government came to power on the mantra of change. Perhaps, what it did not tell millions of Nigerians while it was campaigning for change is the manner the change would take.
“We observe that virtually all economic indices are not friendly at all. The naira keeps going down in value. The purchasing power is growing weaker by the day.
“Many Nigerians can barely live on their income. This is the reason corruption has become somewhat institutional. A lot of workers now take advantage of their offices to exploit fellow Nigerians. The clerk in the office asks for a bribe before he can lift a file.
“The gateman wants to be bribed before he performs his duty. The cleaner has an entitlement mentality. Many civil servants are now compromised because of the need to survive.
“Recently, many filling stations jacked up the pump price of PMS known as petrol and nobody is saying anything. As we speak, petrol goes for between N200 and N250 in some parts of the country. This is really worrisome. For how long are we going to bear this pain? How long are we going to live with this government of empty promises?".
