The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has sharply attacked President Bola Tinubu' s government for its exorbitant expenditure, saying that it is aggravating already precarious Nigeria' s economy. In a statement issued on Sunday, Primate Ayodele voiced his great worry over the government' s extravagant spending, which he regards as not only pointless but also detrimental to the national economic welfare.

The cleric pointed out that the government' s spending policies aggravate rather than help the nation' s economic problems since they are not favorable for economic progress. He underlined that rather than wild and pointless expenditure, Nigeria' s economy need for cautious management and sensible expenditures. Primate Ayodele' s critique comes at a period when Nigeria is experiencing major economic difficulties including debt, inflation, and unemployment. Spending patterns of the government have been under debate since many Nigerians doubt the rationality of some expenditures, especially in view of the nation' s economic situation.

The comment of the cleric emphasizes the need of the government reevaluating its expenditure objectives and using a more austere method to handle the national resources. Warning that neglect of this will have terrible effects on Nigeria' s economy, he urged the government to decrease expenses and slash pointless spending. Primate Ayodele also expressed his dismay at the government' s disregard of the wellbeing of Nigerians, many of whom are barely making ends meet. He pointed out that the government' s exorbitant expenditure amply reveals its goals, which seem to be centered on serving the interests of a small number rather than meeting the requirements of the bulk.
