He then urged the apex bank to make the new currency available for the people rather than make the common man suffer.
His statement reads in part:
“We have to reset this country. The way the country is going is not about religion and ethnicity. It is about few people who have taken the wealth of this country to themselves.”
Diri query why some politicians are lamenting about the policy when all that the CBN is saying is that someone that is not working should not have money in the bullion vans.
