Kano state Governor Abdullahi Ganduje has accused the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) of causing suffering and poverty in the country with the Naira redesign policy, which he referred to as “COVID-23”.
The Governor, speaking during the distribution of palliatives at the Kano state government house on Monday, February 20, claimed that Kano residents are the most affected by the “unfortunate development”.
He said;
“We didn’t invite this situation, neither did we pray for it, we don’t welcome it at all.
We gave similar palliatives during the COVID-19 days. Today our citizens are being faced with COVID-23 caused by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). We earlier thought it was a simple disease, but unfortunately it turned out to be a very serious virus. This virus which came from the CBN has affected all our commercial banks, our POS, our ATM machines, and all other things associated with this. We will not stop blaming the CBN for this economic blunder. We love our people. Therefore, anything that will disturb their well-being must be rejected.”
