A Northern leader, Buba Galadima has revealed that a serving governor stashed N22 billion old naira notes.

The former National Secretary of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change, C, made the disclosure in an interview on Trust TV’s Daily Politics.

Galadima answered a question on the controversial naira redesign policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN.

The New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, chieftain recalled the party already took a strong position on the contentious issue.

Galadima said the CBN Act states that in an event of naira redesign, it should be done within a period of not less than six months.

The statesman said the government however explained it approved the policy because many individuals had amassed the currency in their houses.

“I agree. I know, from intelligence, that there is a governor in the Northwestern part that has about N22 billion of the old currency.

“Yes, N22 billion stacked in his house as I speak to you. He knows himself. And the security agencies know,” he stressed.

Galadima said the agencies might be looking the other way because “maybe they belong to the same club or they are protecting him”.

The politician added that the trap is for the governor to go change the cash “accumulated through corruption”.

A fortnight ago, CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele said the old N200, N500 and N1000 denominations were recalled because N2.7 trillion was kept in people’s homes before the Buhari istration came on board.

You see?

Do you people now see why we must vote for Peter Obi?

Africans are very religious but very wicked.

The NW governor had his way crookedly in 2019 and he's thinking he'd do the same this time . No wonder he went and sued buhari. When the efcc was trailing yahaya bello, who also ed the north west governor to sue baba, some people defended him. 2 weeks ago, his wife and a close relation were accused of massive fraud and money laundering in Kogi....those are the structures they believe in. Dem plenti for dia my people....and they expect Nigeria to progress with such people in government? What a joke

That is part of the money Tinubu stole Tru bullion van, Tinubu does not mean well for Nigerians

Wicked leaders and parasites........



They have suddenly started speaking for the masses they impoverished because of pure greed and wickedness..........



Eno go better for any politician who is part of this madness

Gandollar is the number one suspect

Hmmmm. No wonder he said if Tinubu wins, he will reverse the policy

The way this politicians all of a sudden start caring for the welfare of the citizens is a call for concern.

ASUU strike 8months, they didn't care
Banditry,unknown Gunmen, Cultism, Ritual killing and kidnapping, No Governor sue FG on why they have not taken drastic measures on the welfare of the citizen.

But naira redesign has attracted public criticism, Court lawsuit, Public Assurance from Some Government personnel's.

My Question is why the sudden care?

What are the security agents doing?

Go after these people, burst their warehouse and recover the hidden money.

This should be easier and honourable to do than punishing over 200m people for the 'sins' of few.

Gandollor is that you

Noted

Hmm, hell ruf in my mind, wicked souls, no wonder they approached the chief injustice of Nigeria, the justice machant himself, God go catch una one day

Certainly there's another egg inside this egg.

let them.call names...north western governor is nobody's name...if you can't be bold,then shut up

I can bet it's that dollar stuffing thief in Kano. The way he has been following Tinubu up and down u will know the only way he can hide is loot is if Tinubu wins

Gandollar definitely…awon eeyan Jagudan ti Borgu.
Like Thi.e.fnub.u like his allies.

That’s why they’re running amok over the currency redesign.

This is the most stupid made up story yet.

I hope Nigerians don't believe this cock and bull story.

How on earth will anyone keep N22bn cash anywhere in particular place in a period of time.

The money that will have been stashed in numerous foreign and local s long time ago.

Not even the Naira whose value continue to drop everyday.

Even Ganduje that took Dollar bribe will have stashed it long time ago in offshore s of his Nieces, Daughters or Wives.

It is either G or E

Kano state governor we all knew that already

Abi

You are using your brain bruv.


Those are important questions anyone with a brain should be asking, rather than buying the cock and bull story..

So Nigeria had to spend money and effort to redesign the money to catch a single politician.


Why not just send Ic and EFCC agents after such person.

It's just a cock and bull story.

Even Tinubu took his famous Bullion vans from Banks at Eve of the presidential election.

Baba, no politician is as dumb as you think..

No such politician exist.

They just made up a storyline to justify why some of them are ing the policy.

SLAP44:

Do you people now see why we must vote for Peter Obi?

Has Obi told you how he embezzled,just like the other govs, the security votes given to him for a whole 8 years?

E no that dwarf El rufai

Nothing new here, I believe the person that stole over 82 Billions is still yet to swap it...

Useless,old people.
That's how they throw figures up and down like illiterates gossiping in a beer parlour.
Does he know what ₦22billion cash looks like.
Yes,a Nigerian government official can stack up to ₦2billion,but ₦22b cash in the house is just pure fallacy.
