The Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, says the naira redesign policy was initiated by a cabal around President Muhammadu Buhari to cause chaos in the country and ultimately trigger a military takeover of government.
Mr El-Rufai, who spoke during a live broadcast titled “Let us stand up strongly for democracy, peace and national unity,” said some politicians who lost presidential and gubernatorial primaries are behind the policy.
He said the plan was to cause scarcity of naira notes coupled with the shortage of fuel which may lead to serious protests and military interruption of the nation’s democracy.
