 As Nigerians continue to grapple with the effect of subsidy removal, especially their astronomical hike and transportation, the Nigerian Baptist Convention is advocating for the usage of bicycles to address their transportation issues. The President of the Convention Israel Akonjid discloses an alluring choir state capital during a four-day retreat of 37 conference president across the country with the theme spirituality and administration. Reverend Akonjid and other clergymen as a solution to the effect of subsidy removal recommended the use of bicycles by Nigerians to minimize the cost of purchasing petrol. I think what we're having about hardship about movement these days should promote more walking at all times. I think we should work more now. We should again promote the usage of bicycles. So where it is three kilometers you just discovered that you are there in no time. You spend quite less using the bicycle than using petrol with your car. If you're a journalist you can carry your camera by your side and everything on a beautiful bicycle you ride five kilometers you're there. And everybody is involved in transportation one way or the other. So the government you know should look look critically to the issue of salary restructure and how it will go around you know everybody in the nation. Our Lebanese Nigerians must walk. If they are walking very well then there will be no need for subsidy. Let the Lebanese walk and let Nigerians endure but let the government tell us why we should be enduring. If the government tells us why we should be enduring. They also called on the federal government to allow the full privatization of the nation's security sector like it was done in the broadcast and telecommunication sector with the view to enhancing the security of lives and properties. The recent development in the country according to the clergymen should be the advantage or should be to the advantage of Nigerians. When we have the army let's allow some private security bodies to rise. I am feeling that if we apply that principle to security we will have better handling of security because the government's security will be ashamed if they know that the private security are now being promoted in the eyes of the public better than them they will sit up. They have no rival that's why they are doing what they are doing. Hello. Hope you enjoyed the news.
