“Thirteen” of Nigeria’s 18 political parties have threatened to withdraw from the February 25 and March 11 general elections due to the Central Bank of Nigeria’s naira redesign policy (CBN).

At a briefing on Monday, a coalition of political party chairmen praised President Muhammadu Buhari for redesigning the N200, N500, and N1,000 banknotes.

The parties have stated that they will not participate in the elections if the new deadline of February 10, 2023 is pushed back as some All Progressives Congress governors have demanded (APC).

The “13 parties” also chastised the governments of Kaduna, Kogi, and Zamfara for going to war.
