Nigeria plunged into unrest due to the short notice, leading to a severe cash crunch, horrid swapping of the old notes with the new ones and scarcity of the new notes. While addressing the Senate on Tuesday, September 26, at the screening of Olayemi Cardoso, the CBN governor-designate and his deputies, Akpabio asked if he would not meddle in politics like his predecessor.JAMB Portal
As reported by Daily Trust, Akpabio said: “Don’t forget the fact that the money in the Central Bank isn’t for you. Will you have the courage to resist the temptation to listen to politicians and throw your hat into the ring and go back to your office and sit as CBN governor? “Will you rush to sabotage the election in Nigeria by going for new notes, two days to the election when no country in the world changes new notes within one year, you do your own in 14 days or 11 to see how you can sabotage the election in Nigeria?”\
