The spokesman for the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign organisation, Festus Keyamo, has slammed some opposition members for their support of the Central Bank of Nigeria’s naira swap policy.
According to him, the political opponents believe the directive is targeted at the APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.
Keyamo, who is also the Minister of State for Labour and Productivity, wondered why members of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) whom he said had always condemned every policy of President Muhammadu Buhari were now the ones praising him.
“All of a sudden PDP gets up from nowhere and begins to praise Buhari,” the minister said on Channels Television’s The 2023 Verdict programme on Friday,
“I say, ‘What a time to be alive.’ ‘Oh, Buhari is an honest man.’ I said, ‘Wait a minute, these are people who have always told Nigerians that Buhari’s integrity is fake; that Buhari is not an honest man.’
