The Sultan of Sokoto and President-General of Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, Alhaji Muhammadu Sa’ad Abubakar, on Monday, lamented the protracted crisis over naira redesign, saying it had caused hunger and anger in Nigeria.

According to him, the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), should address the problem to prevent an uprising.

The Sultan said the naira crisis had made life unbearable for citizens

At a two-day conference by the Kano State government on livestock reforms and mitigation of associated conflicts, which held in Abuja, he said there was increasing tension caused by the CBN monetary policy, adding that urgent steps should be taken to stem the crisis.

“After all the English by Professors (at the conference), how do we get these developments down to the common man who is a farmer, the common Fulani man who doesn’t know anything about development? He only cares about cattle.

“The people are hungry – is there money? People are angry and hungry. Let’s see how we can douse the tension.”
