Senior Advocate of Nigeria, SAN, Afe Babalola says President Bola Tinubu’s administration is not doing well to listen to the cries of the citizens.
The renowned lawyer stated this on Friday at his university in Ado-Ekiti.
Babalola also expressed support for the agitation of The Patriots for a new Constitution.
While addressing the Prestige Sisters League who visited the campus to thank him, Babalola said,
“Those who are complaining about hunger are doing so sincerely. They are hungry. A hungry man can go to any length to show his anger. We do not need anybody to tell us about hunger in the country. The protest was genuine and the government should listen to them,” Babalola said.
“The duty of the government is the welfare of the people. The problem we have now is that people cannot move freely. They have abandoned the farms.
“People are being killed on their farms and everybody wants to stay where they are safe. It is because the government has failed in this regard that we have hunger.
“It is wrong for the government to be sharing garri, beans and rice as palliatives. They are turning the people into beggars. The government that is giving the people rice and beans is leading us to poverty.
“The government is discouraging people from working, whereas, the government must provide the people enabling environment for people to work and feed themselves.”
