The governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, has referred to the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) policy on the redesign of the naira as a policy of confiscation and claimed that President Muhammadu Buhari was duped.
Friday’s episode of Politics Today on Channels Television featured an interview with Bello.
“The policy is essentially a confiscation policy, packaged so beautifully, but Mr. Dot President was duped,” the governor declared. “.
Bello replied simply, “Those who advised Mr.dot President economically misled Mr.dot President,” in response to a question about those who deceived Buhari. “.
This occurs just a short time after the Supreme Court on Friday lifted the restriction on the acceptance of the old N200, N500, and N1000 banknotes as legal tender.
The old banknotes should continue to be accepted as legal tender until December 31 according to the Supreme Court’s unanimous ruling by a panel of seven Justices.
