The presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi, has called on Nigerians to bear with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the Federal Government over the ongoing Naira scarcity owing to the currency redesign.
Obi made the call on Sunday via his verified Twitter handle.
According to him, the currency design is not peculiar to Nigeria alone and it is an exercise that comes with some inconvenience and pain.
He wrote, “The currency redesign is not peculiar to Nigeria. It is an exercise that comes with some inconvenience and pain but it has significant longterm economic and social benefits. Even though there are improvements that can be made, I urge Nigerians to bear with the CBN and Federal Government with the hope that the general populace and Nigeria will harvest the gains that will come with the reforms.”
