Nigerians have been told to vote out the All Progressives Congress. The Presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Rabiu Kwankwaso made the plea while urging Nigerians not to resort to violence over the harsh effects of the Naira swap policy.
The new cash policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has led to the scarcity of the Naira across the nation, which has led to violent protests and deaths. In a tweet via his Twitter handle on Thursday, Kwankwaso urged Nigerians to use their anger to vote out the All Progressives Congress (APC) which initiated and mismanaged the policy.
He said, “I’m concerned about reports of tensions and fracas in some parts of the country over the biting effects of the Naira redesign policy. “While I maintain that the policy is ill-advised and timed, I call on all Nigerians to maintain law and order, and to avoid violent reactions. I also urge all of us to express our collective anger at the polls on February 25.”
