The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has accused the All
Progressives Congress (APC) of hoarding the newly redesigned naira notes for
vote-buying in the forthcoming elections.
In a statement on Sunday, Debo Ologunagba, national
publicity secretary of the PDP, said the hardship brought upon the country by
the APC will be forgotten when Atiku Abubakar, standard bearer of the PDP, is
elected into office.
The PDP called on the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to be
mindful of the suffering being experienced daily by Nigerians.
The opposition party also asked banks to take urgent
measures to arrest the situation by ensuring adequate protection and effective
monitoring of cash distribution process.
“The Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) expresses optimism that the hopelessness and anguish
brought upon our nation by the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration
will be a thing of the past when the PDP Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar
assumes office as president come May 29, 2023,” Ologunagba said.
“The PDP decries the excruciating pain and distress being
faced by Nigerians arising from their inability to access the new naira notes
occasioned by the reported nefarious activities of corrupt APC leaders who are
compromising the system to intercept and hoard the new bank notes for their
selfish vote-buying plans ahead of the February 25, 2023 presidential election.
“Our party is, however, saddened that the cash crunch had
persisted due to the sabotage of corrupt APC leaders, including the APC
presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who are alleged to have
masterminded the intercepting and hoarding of the new notes for their selfish
agenda.
“Nigerians now know
the truth and hold Asiwaju Tinubu and the APC directly responsible for the
anguish they have been subjected to in the face of this excruciating cash
scarcity; another reason they will deal Tinubu a humiliating blow with their
votes at the February presidential election.
“The PDP calls on President Buhari to protect Nigerians by
going after these felonious APC leaders as well as the saboteurs in the system
who are reportedly working with the APC presidential campaign to mop up cash
meant for distribution to our citizens.
“Our party stands with Nigerians; the artisans, traders,
drivers, “keke” and “okada” riders, labourers, food vendors, students and all
hard-working citizens at this time of distress.”
