LAGOS, Nigeria – Former Minister of Aviation and Spokesman of the Presidential Campaign Council of the All-Progressive Congress,  APC PCC , Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode, FFK, has received the bashing of his life from Nigerians for calling Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, Mr. Godwin Emefiele enemy of democracy over Naira redesign and old Naira swap policy.

FFK, who called for total cancelation of the exercise until after the 2023 general election said the apex bank governor wants to “cause crisis, provoke a people’s uprising, derail democracy and pave way for an Interim National Government, ING”.

But in reply to him and other  politicians pressing for postponement of the exercise until June ending, Nigerian said the politician should mind his business.

A Nigerian lady, who identified herself as Ngozi told him politely, “We are not complaining sir”.

SIM MX1 added, “Stop crying, AMODA is not the only candidate contesting, don’t worry , he’s going to make your payment through bank transfer, while Mac Baron said, the CBN governor is only trying to make sure that no bullion van misses its way to its destination on election eve.

Hard Archi, said, “This policy was actually made by your party, why complaining”, he asked most especially when the National Assembly dominated by the APC had proclaimed publicly that it will support anything that the President Buhari wants.

He continued: “We like am, even if it is for us to suffer it now and enjoy later. We go persevere. E shock dem. Bubu shock them”, he said.

Jeje Biggesttula said, “Obviously, this write up is not for the masses. You didn’t call for protest when ASUU was on strike, you’re yet to call for protest on fuel scarcity … you care less about the masses. Please…. You people can do better.

However, Sleek Goldfishdabosslady said, “Talk is cheap. Don’t cry more than the bereaved. Be a spokesman for the masses on other salient issues not for the scarcity of the new naira notes. Una no go see bullion van this election,. Ntor”, she said.

Uche Dyke said, “ All of a sudden, the rich and politicians seem to show concern”, while E. Willson noted, “ When you politicians made the common man live in poverty, we don’t have old notes in our custody. We don’t need you to fight for us. You are fighting  for your principals who already stalked trillions of Naira with the hopes of buying votes with it. The deadline has been extended until 10^th and that is enough for every common Nigeria”, he told FFK.

Emma Vibes used the opportunity to sing Wike’s popular anthem to his hearing, “Oga … No more rigging, as  e de pain dem.. e de sweet us, as e de pain una.. e de sweet Buhari nd Emefiele.

I am sparkling said, ‘Oga Zuwanuike. They are no longer giving you Ghana must go bag of cash. Everybody knows you are after your stomach”.

Joseph Vincent added, “Oga, we de poor masses are  very ok with it. May be after the election, we equally start using the old currency, how about that,  werey”.

Genbigie described Emefiele as the best CBN  governor that will set the country free from all you rogue politicians”.

Hotgils, said: Lol, you are talking the nonsense sir. After stacking old naira notes to use rig the election, e shock you.  If you get mind carry those notes to deposit in the bank if EFCC will not arrest you. He made  a great move. You can use your card to actually pay for anything you want . don’t talk like you are talking for the masses. The old money will expire in you peoples’ hands. Thieves”.

Bob Yakubu said, “You never se anything, kuje prison is your next home”, he warned. Mag Bajaz said; “I respect and admire you a lot for your brilliant articles, but this one is completely at variance with your personality. Sir please delete this one. For free and fair and credible election, we must shun vote buying. We need a better Nigeria with CBN new policies, it will be impossible for politicians hoarding our naira to buy vote, rather buy votes with your manifestos”, he advised FFK.

JBlaze Royalty said, “Cry blood, no vote buying this year.  TBr records said, I totally understand your point sir, but this man is under APC, Can’t the president call him to order or can we now conclude he is working against the progress of APC, or there is a but somewhere if APC fails to retain power, Nigeria is doom”, he said.

But advocate Nigeria  said, “ the hardship Nigerians have been facing for over seven years of this government wasn’t enough to bring ING but only small currency redesign will cause that. Tell that to the marines”, he said. But Lekan said this policy cannot stop vote buying since politicians can still transfer money or buy votes using the US Dollars.
