The Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) has asked the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor, Godwin Emefiele, to resign over the naira redesign policy that has caused Nigerians untold hardship.
The party also asked President Muhammadu Buhari to reverse the policy and sack the apex bank’s governor if he fails to resign.
It also urged the president to investigate the alleged fraud in the oil industry and the financial sector amounting to N112.15trn.
The National Chairman of PRP, Malam Falalu Bello, while addressing the press in Abuja after the presentation of the party’s 34-page manifesto titled: “Compact with the People: Manifesto of the PRP for 2023 Elections”, said the manifesto, anchored on a six-point agenda, sought to boost agriculture, revamp the economy, enhance education and human capital development, promote national unity and genuine federalism, ensure national security, sanitise the extractive industry, oil and gas and solid minerals sectors.
