Primate Elijah Ayodele, a well-known Nigerian prophet, touched the hearts of those in need on Saturday, July 20, 2024, at the Badagry branch of his church in Lagos during another version of his palliative market.
Thank you for visiting The Vestigator, don't forget to share!
As usual, the cost of necessities was absurdly reduced to make them affordable for the people who attend the church and the surrounding area. Half-bags of grains sold for N15,000, quarter-bags for N7,000, five litres of groundnut oil for N2,000, and a number of other things were also sold to attendees at the palliative market.
To name a few, widows, traders, Muslims, and security personnel are among the recipients of this generosity. It is noteworthy that this palliative market edition is the sixth that Primate Ayodele has hosted in less than a year.
His church’s headquarters in Lagos hosted the first and second editions in November 2023 and February 2024, respectively. The fourth event took place in Ijoko, Ogun State, whereas the third edition took place in Ekiti. Over 5,000 people have profited from Ayodele’s palliative market thus far.
Primate Ayodele declared at the opening of his palliative market that the government would be supported and taught practical methods for putting an end to hunger in the nation if food prices were to be subsidised. He said that in order to alleviate hardship, the government hasn’t done enough and that one of the best solutions is to subsidise food costs, as people find it difficult to feed themselves because of the high cost of food in the markets.
The government created the issue by failing to buffer the effects of the elimination of fuel subsidies. The people’s misery is so great that they are unable to pay for food. For food, thousands of people in various areas have turned to begging, but the government says they have only provided palliative care. I’m taking action because the government has overlooked it.
My contribution to society is my quota for assisting the government in carrying out its duties. We’ll teach them how to do it if they don’t already know how. The government ought to take note of this model. Economic suffering will decrease if the government can bring down the country’s severe hunger to a certain extent.
