The country's economic status changed shortly after Tinubu’s government announced that the fuel subsidy was gone and the naira floated. Commodities in the market, especially food, skyrocketed after that.

But Primate Ayodele explained that Nigeria will continue to be difficult till there’s an economic reset which the current government may not be able to carry out.

“This government will only work but they don’t have solution. Things will be getting difficult until they restart the economy again. I pity Nigerians because they will continue to face this till when God knows.”

Primate Ayodele warned:

“Don’t let it get to a state where people will be taking food from dustbins; we are in an economic embarrassment era. Nigeria’s economy will be hypertensive.”

The Nigerian Tribune confirmed the development in their publications on Friday.
