Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has voiced his frustration with the current state of affairs in Nigeria, calling on citizens to be equally outraged.

“I’m angry with the citizens; people should be angry. There should be protests. We will not vote; there will be no election in our state because of the current rate of hunger,” Amaechi said.

He highlighted the unaffordable cost of diesel as an example of how difficult things have become, adding, “If people like us can’t afford diesel, you can imagine how others are coping”.
