A section of social media users are of the opinion that Governor of Kaduna State Nasir El-Rufai and his Kogi State counterpart, Yahaya Bello must be investigated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and Independent Corrupt Practices Commission (ICPC) for their posture on the newly designed naira notes.

The two governors were present at the apex court at the resumption of the hearing regarding the case on the naira swap policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

With the case adjourned to Wednesday, February 22, Bello told journalists at the end of the hearing that they were present to ensure that justice is obtained for the masses who are suffering the brunt of the policy at this time.

“We are in court because Nigerians are suffering as a result of this CBN muddled-up cashless versus currency redesign policy, that is why we are here today,” the governor asserted.
