RIPPLES NIGERIA
The African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has slammed his counterpart in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, for backtracking on his reaction to the ongoing naira redesign policy.
Contrary to his earlier position on the policy, the former Vice President had in a series of tweets on Sunday urged the apex bank to allow commercial banks accept deposits of the old N500 and N1,000 notes.
…However, Sowore in a reaction via his Twitter handle on Monday described Atiku as an opportunist who thought he could leverage naira redesign policy to win the forthcoming election.
He insisted the policy was a fraud contrived to lure Nigerians into more misery.
“Opportunistic @atiku thought he could capitalise on the poverty-inducing Naira Design to win election. Any real leader would have known that ‘naira design’ fraud was going to hurt poor Nigerians. Reason I keep saying there is no difference. He’s coming to sell everything”, the tweet reads.
