ACYF kicks over Atiku comments on Naira swaps

Date:

From: Femi Oyelola, Kaduna

The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) has said the former Vice president Alhaji Atiku Abubakar stands alone in his call on the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) not to review the deadline.
The National President of the Forum Alhaji Yerima Shettima asserted this during a press conference held in Kaduna yesterday.
According to him, Atiku’s opinion is against prominent Nigerians who made a passionate appeal for deadline review.
Alhaji Shettima added that Atiku’s call was out of place because it is coming on the heels of growing complaint about the kind of sabotage that is causing untold hardship to Nigerians over this policy.
AYCF questioned what purpose will the current difficulties people are facing serve Atiku? Why would he rather identify with the need to let the difficulties faced by rural folks to continue and for how long?
