An emerging report has confirmed that Bola Tinubu, the All Progressive Congress presidential candidate (APC), might be the biggest beneficiary of the naira redesign policy implemented by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). This was according to some APC chieftains while reflecting on the current scarcity of the naira and its aftermath in the build-up to Saturday, February 25, presidential polls.
As reported by Punch Newspaper, some of the chieftains said the revealed that Tinubu’s guts to challenge the CBN policy openly was a sign of his love for the masses and, in turn, could earn him sympathy vote at the presidential polls.
Senator Adesoji Akanbi, a close ally of Tinubu said:
“It might end up favouring Asiwaju that they were targeting. A lot of people are realising that it is all because of him. It is becoming a rhythm. There will be sympathy votes because people believe it is targeted at him, and the mere fact that he said it out that he was against the policy. That will be like a bonus for him.”
