Inflation is almost out of control and prices of goods and commodities have risen astronomically.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has become hard for people to feed their families. Perhaps only a very few wealthy individuals can claim to be comfortable at the moment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe urge our government to work harder at diversifying our economy. Already, it is evident that unemployment is very high, as so many graduates are walking about without any job or means of livelihood. This makes the future look bleak and hopeless for many,\u201d Fagbemi said.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that despite the economic quagmire, Nigeria has continued to borrow while \u201cthe political class is not undergoing any serious economic adjustment as their monthly take-home which is humongous is a shameless inconsideration of the plight of their electorate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nigerians in pain, frustrated \u2013 Anglican Bishop to Tinubu<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Owo in Ondo State, Reverend Stephen Fagbemi, says the economic difficulties in Nigeria&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":43094,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,466],"tags":[8,9109,2058,19589,180,905,20015,26],"class_list":["post-43093","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-tinubu","tag-akwa-ibom","tag-anglican","tag-bishop","tag-frustrated","tag-news","tag-nigerians","tag-pain","tag-tinubu"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.9 -
