PROTEST: PFN scribe cautions FG not to take Nigerians for granted

The national publicity secretary of Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, PFN, Archbishop-elect Emmah Gospel Isong has called on the federal government of Nigeria not to take Nigerians for granted.
He said Nigerians are considerate and passionate about their country, which is the reason the planned protest against alleged bad governance has become softened.
Reacting about the first day of the 10 days planned protest, Dr Isong who is the founder of Christian Central Chapel International said although critical stakeholders like community, religious and other concerned leaders have appealed to organizers of the protest to see reasons to rescind their decision yet it was very important too for the state and federal governments to play their own parts by looking towards the wellbeing of the citizens.
He said having seemingly achieved victory like this which may not always come cheap as it is therefore the government must wake up, listen to the cries and yearnings of their people and assuage them.
He noted that Nigerian youths are not praising the government but are not violent either yet the government should in turn create more employment, increase productivity, ease business environments and reach out more to community leaders.
“There’s an adage that says when you talk to the kites you also talk to the chicks. Having cautioned the youths and organizers of the protest, we also caution the federal government to be people-friendly.
“Nigerian leaders should wake up and work towards alleviating the sufferings of the masses, raise the standards of living, and reduce the price of petrol which has contributed mostly to hyperinflation in the country.
“We want all levels of governments to be accountable to the people of Nigeria”, he said.
He disclosed that Cross River was the most affected during the last endSARS protest and the people and government have not completely recovered from it.
He stated that CAN and PFN are neck-deep in praying for peace, and unity and for governments to be well guided by the divine spirit.
