"The APC government must wake up from its slumberings and lackadaisical attitude of asking Nigerians to be patient and continue enduring till kingdom come. Nigerians have suffered for far too long, and the people need action.
"The government must show empathy and develop workable short-term solutions that can assuage the sufferings of the masses. "People are suffering; food prices have gone by 300%, and the earning power of Nigerians is still static."

He also lamented that the growing pattern of military coups in West Africa is becoming worrisome, noting that Nigerians are beginning to buy into the idea due to bad governance and corruption.

He noted that a coup is not the solution but urged politicians to rethink and avoid being a victim of citizen rage.

Dr. Sani lamented that the economy is in bad shape and that the past 100 days of President Tinubu's administration have been below standard.

He said:

"But I don't think a military coup is the solution. Our politicians are living large while the masses sink into poverty and hunger. The frustration in the land is too much. I will score this government very low in its 100 days. Maybe a D-grade, but certainly not a B or C grade.
"Just look at the issue of security, law, order, and economic satisfaction; we lost about 30 soldiers and a military plane. The economy is in bad shape. The government must sit up."
