Always known for taking sides with the people, the Presidential Candidate of People’s Democratic Party, H.E Atiku Abubakar has released a video on his position on the January 31st deadline of the ongoing currency redesign program of the CBN.
In a video he released, Atiku Abubakar is appealing to CBN to slightly extend the monetary conversation policy to ease the burden of the policy on ordinary Nigerians especially the unbanked population in the rural areas.
Reports from commercial banks indicates that as at yesterday, virtually all banks were still paying the old naira notes to customers making withdrawal over the counter. New notes are only available at the ATMs where a daily withdrawal limit of 20,000 exists.
Most, traders including transporters have stopped collecting the old notes triggering crisis in market places and restaurants across country.
Atiku understands the economy, he understands our people, and understands how businesses work. With Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa as his running mate they are poised to make our currency strong again and help our economy grow.
A vote for H.E Atiku Abubakar and Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa is a vote for two good men who mean well for Nigeria.
As One we can get it done!!!!!!
