When Tinubu takes office, he said, he should question Godwin Emefiele, the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, or CBN.
The legislator said that the CBN’s decision to redesign Naira notes was a deliberate attempt to thwart Tinubu’s presidential aspirations. He made this claim in an interview with Channels Television.
He asserted that the policy that sparked controversy in the nation earlier this year should have the governor of the top bank forced to defend its true intentions.
He stated: “The calculated attempt then, was to stop APC from winning the election. They said they were redesigning the Naira, so where are the redesigned notes?
“Gradually, they are out of circulation. If the judiciary had kept quiet, Nigeria would have gone into chaos.
“If I were Tinubu, when I assume office, I will call in Emefiele and others to come and explain what happened and what was the reason behind the redesigning of Naira notes”.
