The Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje, has said there are moves to re-enact the annulled June 12, 1992, presidential election.

Ganduje, a supporter of the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, said this on Tuesday, following an interim injunction issued by a Federal High Court in Abuja, barring the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, from extending the 10-day deadline set for the currency swap.

He said the strings of the cash swap is pulled by some anti-democratic elements.

Ganduje, who spoke through his Commissioner for Information, Malam Muhammad Garba, alleged that the fifth columnists are dangerously masquerading under the guise of prevailing crisis generated by the cash policy.

He said they have employed legal instrument to further impose what he described as an unfeasible cash policy that is taking its toll on the masses in the country.

He accused some of the detractors of colluding with the main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party to execute their scheme.

He added that the open support for the CBN policy by the main opposition party and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, also laid credence to the grand complicity between the opposition and the apex bank to deliberately thwart the nation’s hard-earned democracy by imposing harsh policies calculated to weaken the masses.

According to him, it is most unfortunate that the CBN and its collaborators are insisting unnecessarily on the imposition of an unreasonable time frame for the old naira notes to cease to be legal tender, in total refutation of the obvious national dearth in the necessary technological infrastructure for the process.

Ganduje, a strong ally of the APC Presidential flagbearer, Bola Tinubu further noted that the insistence on the implementation of these harsh, inhuman and insensitive cash policies to a point of neglecting their widespread rejection by the vast majority of Nigerians including the National Assembly and majority of the state governors.

He stated that it is an ominous agenda for undermining the country, especially preparations for a smooth transition to a freely and fairly elected successive administration.
