Charly Boy, the ace Nigerian singer, has urged Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere, the controversial pastor known as Odumeje, to use his purported spiritual powers to save Nigeria from its current hardships.

The singer’s plea follows Odumeje’s recent criticism of Aliko Dangote for not responding to his prophetic warning about a disaster at his refinery.

Odumeje claimed that the refinery would not have caught fire if Dangote had sought his intervention.

Weighing in on the matter, Charly Boy called on Odumeje to focus his spiritual efforts on alleviating the suffering in Nigeria and save the nation from “burning”.

He also advised the clergyman to disregard Dangote, stating that the billionaire is out of touch with the struggles faced by ordinary Nigerians.

“Dear Odumeje, We Nigerians have humbly come to you – please can you stop the nation from burning, fire is catching, the economy is plummeting. We ask for your power in this desperate time of need,” he wrote.

“Abeg no mind Dangote, he get plenty money oo, this hunger no dey reach him side that’s why E no understand say E go humble before the Indabosky #Naijamatter.”

The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) recently reported that Nigeria’s inflation rate rose to 34.19 percent in June 2024, up from 33.95 percent in May..

According to the bureau, food inflation also surged to 40.87 percent in the month under review as prices of food and non-alcoholic beverages continued to surge.
