"In recent time,Nigeria has been surviving on foreign loans and the economic hardship is hitting hard on the ordinary citizens. "The recent scarcity and increase in the prices of the Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) can only make things worse for Nigeria and Nigerians." "The proposed increase in the cost of flight tickets nationwide will also add to the suffering of the people. "Now that people prefer to travel by Air as a result of the high spate of insecurity,it is very unfortunate that the Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON) have resolved to increase the cost of flight tickets nationwide. "For example,economy flight tickets that sold for N30,000 or N35,000 at a flat rate has been increased to N50,000 nationwide. "The domestic operators gave reasons for the sudden increase which, according to them, include high cost of jet A1 fuel, forex scarcity, double digit inflation, increase in ground handling charges, cost of buying and importation of spare parts among others. "Apart from the aviation sector, other sectors of the Nigerian economy are also suffering.The huge increase in import duty tariff for imported vehicles are taking a heavy toll on businesses and the cost of goods and services. "It is very important for President Muhammadu Buhari to take a drastic step that can help salvage the economy.Buhari must evolve a strategic approach to save the dwindling economy from imminent collapse." "The transformation in Epe today is evident.The festival has spiritual contents that are capable of turning the city around.Grandmothers' Festival is a replica of Halloween festival celebrated across Europe and the people are better off promoting their cultural identities." "Let me appreciate Aareonakakanfo of Yorubaland for his consistency in championing the cause of cultural rejuvenation. Epe people will always stand by the group in its efforts to ensure the safety of the town." "The struggle of the OPC will never go in vain,whether now or later Nigeria's history will be kind to OPC as a group that had rescued the Yoruba race during the most challenging period in the history of Nigeria."
