Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Adams Oshiomhole, a former National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, has kicked against President Muhammadu Buhari\u2019s decision on the naira redesign policy.<\/p>\n

Oshiomhole, who said Buhari is on his own following his recent comment on the naira redesign policy last Thursday, also insisted that Godwin Emefiele, the Central Bank Governor, will expire after Saturday\u2019s presidential election.<\/p>\n

The former Edo State governor, who stated this at Jattu market in Auchi, Edo North, also urged Buhari to obey the Supreme Court verdict on the naira notes.<\/p>\n

Speaking in pidgin, Oshiomhole said: \u201cAll this wahala wey Buhari put for currency change, my hand no dey inside. Our party don tell Buhari, wait if you wan change currency, you shouldn\u2019t change am during election. Wetin you no change during your time, you wan make am spoil another pesin time, e no good.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has to obey the Supreme Court. Supreme Court judgement is superior to the pronouncement of the president. That\u2019s the Nigerian law. I disassociate myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued: \u201cNah them choose ham. If they say dey want to change it, make them give you the new ones. Now they want to remove the old ones, they no give you the new ones. On this matter, President Buhari is on his own. Your naira will remain valid according to the Supreme Court. Don\u2019t throw away your naira, keep it.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cBy the time you finish voting on Saturday, Emefiele, the Central Bank Governor, will expire. Your money will not expire. But the president will expire.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2023 presidential election will take place on Saturday.<\/p>\n
