Adewale Giwa, Senior Pastor of Awaiting The Second Coming of Jesus Christ Ministry, has expressed his willingness to lead a genuine protest against bad governance in Nigeria. In a statement released in Akure, the Ondo state capital, Giwa criticized the authenticity of past protests and the motivations behind them.
Giwa stated, “I have not seen a genuine protest in Nigeria. Any planned protest is not considered to be a genuine one. Can you tell a hungry man when to protest? The organizers or the sponsors didn’t plan it well.”
He emphasized the need for honesty and a return to Nigeria’s foundational issues, arguing that many are willing to vote for their oppressors for financial incentives. Giwa expressed his readiness to lead a sincere movement, citing his love for Nigeria and concern for the poor.
He also criticized state governors as the true enemies of the country, urging them to take more action to alleviate poverty. Addressing President Bola Tinubu, Giwa called for immediate measures to lower the prices of petroleum and foodstuffs and reopen land borders.
“You were part of the people who fought for democracy, and you should not be the one to mess it up,” Giwa said, urging Tinubu to act quickly to bring relief to Nigerians.
