Meanwhile, Kano State Governor Abdullahi Ganduje has described the cashless policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, as COVID-23.
Lamenting the hardship occasioned by the scarcity of cash, the governor kicked against the policy.
Ganduje said this while distributing palliatives to the 44 local government areas of the state in a bid to cushion the effects of the Redesigning Program.
Despite President Muhammadu Buhari’s directive banning the old N500 and N1000 noteGanduje and other governors elected under the platform of the All Progressives Congress had vowed to reverse the policy.
