In a move to quell growing unrest and avert a nationwide protest, the revered Oba of Benin, Oba Ewuare II, has called for peace and patience in the face of economic hardship. The Benin Monarch made the appeal in an official statement, urging aggrieved citizens to give the government more time to implement policies that could potentially ease the nation’s current economic difficulties.
Amidst rising social tension and mounting anger, the royal intervention comes as a timely reminder for Nigerians to consider alternative approaches in voicing their concerns, thus averting any potential violence or unrest.
