The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has criticised the President Muhammadu Buhari Government over its recent decision to redesign the Naira.
Pastor Adeboye made the remarks Friday night during the church’s November Holy Ghost Service with the theme “Let It Rain”.
Speaking, Adeboye wondered why President Buhari would be more concerned about redesigning the Naira in the face of dwindling economic fortunes of the naira.
He further lamented that the Federal Government was planning to redesign the naira when people are hungry and looking for money.
He said: “Do you know what is going on in our country? It doesn’t make sense anymore. Our Naira now, it is not even worth the paper it is printed on.
“And while people are hungry, trying to find enough money to buy bread to eat, our bosses are thinking of making the Naira more beautiful.”
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), late October announced plans to redesign the N200, N500, and N1,000 bank notes, adding that the new notes will come into circulation on December 15, 2022. Read more.
