KEEP YOUR OLD NAIRA NOTES, BUHARI AND EMEFIELE WILL EXPIRE ON SATURDAY – OSHIOMHOLE 

Former governor of Edo state, Adams Oshiomhole, has urged the people of the state to hold onto their old naira notes until the end of President Muhammadu Buhari's administration. 

Speaking to some of his supporters at the Jattu market in Auchi Edo North, the former chairman of the All Progressives Congress condemned the new monetary policy of the Federal Government led by the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele.

Oshiomhole in a now viral video, said Buhari has no option but to obey the Supreme Court's order on the implementation and deadline for swapping of old notes for new ones. 

Speaking to the people in Pidgin English, Oshiomhole expressed worry that Buhari's administration did not implement such a policy on the eve of his 2023 re-election bid.

He said: “All this wahala wey Buhari put for currency change, my hand no dey inside. Our party don tell Buhari, wait if you want change currency, you should not change ham during election. 

"Wetin you no change during your time, you wan make ham spoil another pesin time, e no good. At this point, nah only good we go dey fear.
