The Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom has said that the policy of the federal government to redesign some naira notes will go down in the administration’s history as the worst decision made by it.
Ortom, who took to his official Twitter handle on Wednesday shortly after the supreme court adjourned sitting over the case brought by some State Governor’s against the CBN called on President Buhari to review the policy.
He noted that many Nigerians were suffering due to the policy.
According to him, people are hungry while children can not go to school due to the effect of the policy on the economy.
His tweet read “This is the worst policy done by the Federal Government. Nigerians are suffering and some are dying. The people are feeling the pains; their children can’t go to school; they have nothing to eat. Even those who have money in the banks are not able to access the money.
“Yet, some people are not telling Mr. President the truth. Someone close to the President should tell him that this policy will sink his image forever, if he allows it to remain the way it is. The Federal Government should review the policy before the situation gets out of hand, “
