Pastor Adeboye shades FG over naira redesign
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has reacted to plan by the Central Bank of Nigeria to redesign the N200, N500, and N1,000 notes in spite rising inflation in the country.
CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele had last week announced plan by the apex bank to issue the redesigned N200, N500, and N1,000 notes from December 15, 2022, stating that the new notes will completely replace the old notes on January 31, 2023.
Speaking during RCCG’s Holy Service on Friday, November 4, Adeboye said: “You know what’s going on in our country. It doesn’t even make sense anymore. Our naira now is not even worth the paper it is printed on.
And while people are hungry, trying to find enough money to buy bread to eat, our bosses are thinking of making the naira more beautiful, even if it can’t buy bread, at least, it will look beautiful. Oh Lord, have mercy.
