Nigeria Sitting On Time Bomb That May Lead To Revolution – Adeyanju Warns Tinubu

Deji Adeyanju, the human rights activist, has warned that Nigeria is sitting on a time bomb of economic hardship, kidnapping, and banditry.

Adeyanju said the effect of the time bomb Nigeria is sitting on might drive Nigerians into a major revolution in the shortest possible time.

In a statement, he urged President Bola Tinubu to partner with churches, mosques, and traditional rulers in a bid to reduce corruption in the National Social Investment Programmes, NSIPs.

According to Adeyanju: “By doing so, the government can mitigate the risk of political interference and ensure that funds are utilized transparently and efficiently, reaching the intended beneficiaries.

“It is imperative to recognize that Nigeria is currently sitting on a time bomb of hardships, banditry, insecurity, and kidnapping. The cumulative effect of these challenges has pushed our nation to the brink.

“If urgent measures are not taken to cushion the effects of this hardship, we fear that mass protests may erupt across the country, potentially leading to a serious revolution.

“We must acknowledge that there is a limit to what the people can endure. If President Tinubu genuinely cares about the well-being of the citizens and seeks to alleviate their suffering, it is important that he reinstates the suspended programmes that can provide much-needed support to ordinary citizens and the vulnerable.”
