Apparently,Emefiele’s policy of redesigning Naira notes + cash withdrawal cap limitation has failed already with wat we see in this video…cos Tinubu clearly already has new Naira notes in bundles for sharing & wont be arrested. but we move #PeterObi4President2023 #ObiDattiInUyo pic.twitter.com/cvYYRYwqzv

Labour party members supporting Obi are crying that Tinubu & Shettima gave a physically challenged man cash in public, they are angry because the man that collected the cash is not a madman from Upper Iwweka road????
