Spyro urged everyone on the podium to speak up, hoping that this time the government would listen. He also called on men of God to speak up, noting that their people need them at this time.
In his words: “I personally think it is quite insensitive to post anything entertainment rn… The Country is bleeding and we all are affected whether or not we agree to that fact .I am very much affected m,I particularly feel the pain of the average man and I don’t intend to keep mute so I am calling on everyone with a platform to speak up… I am hoping that the government will see our tears this time and take actual steps for the betterment of the people #GODBLESSNIGERIA
“I wish Men of God can speak up for the people now as it was in the days of old …This is not a time to PRAY,it is a time to ACT,even the Bible says “FAITH without WORKS is dead” In the Bible days,men of God were strong tools that God used to challenge the government and liberate the people. MOSES, your people need you now “
