Primate Ayodele stated that the Stephen Oronsaye report - which President Tinubu recently ordered its full implementation - is not in tandem with Nigeria’s current economic realities.

Legit.ng reports that citizens have been battling severe economic hardship in recent times as prices of commodities continue to increase. Many families are struggling as a result of the situation.

Apart from demonstrations by the masses recently across the country, members of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) held a nationwide protest against the economic hardship in the country.

Primate Ayodele said:

“Another thing the president can do to make Nigeria better is total restructuring. Restructuring is the answer to all the problems we are having in Nigeria. Restructuring is the best solution to this problem, or else this government would not do restructuring, it would only be talking of it.”
