The former chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in Kaduna State who is Nigeria’s representative at the Global Peace Foundation, Rev John Joseph Hayab, has said protests will not solve Nigeria’s problems.
According to Hayab, Nigerians should rather look inwards in addressing the challenges and not protesting.
In a statement, he said he observed with deep concern, the rising protests in different parts of the country recording citizens’ grievances on the high cost of goods and services every day.
“Undeniably, the hike in prices of commodities means that most Nigerians do not find things easy,” Hayab said.
Hayab appealed to Nigerians to seek other ways such as peaceful public advocacy to register their grievances on the biting economic hardship in the country, noting that violence has never done any good in the history of man.
