Former Rivers State Governor and current Minister, Rotimi Amaechi, has voiced his frustration with the worsening economic conditions in Nigeria, urging citizens to take a stand against the government. Amaechi expressed concern over widespread hunger and economic hardship, emphasizing the need for citizens to protest against the current administration.
Speaking about the growing struggles faced by Nigerians, Amaechi argued that under the present circumstances, elections should not have taken place. He stated, "People should be angry and protest against politicians. They should also say elections shouldn’t be held because the rate of hunger now is high. If people like us can’t afford diesel, then imagine how other people are."
Amaechi also criticized the recent elections in Edo State, describing them as poorly timed, given the suffering in the country. "What happened in Edo shouldn’t have taken place, elections shouldn’t have been held," he remarked, highlighting the disconnection between political activities and the harsh realities Nigerians are enduring.
His comments reflect growing dissatisfaction among the population as many struggle to cope with rising costs and economic instability across the nation.
