A chieftain All Progressive Congress, APC, Femi Fani-Kayode lambasted the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, or CBN, Godwin Emefiele, as well as other individuals in front of the supreme court for the ongoing currency scarcity.
Fani-Kayode declared that Emefiele and anyone at CBN who disobeyed the Supreme Court decision would face God’s judgment and a curse.
The former aviation minister bemoaned Emefiele and other CBN officials’ actions as though they were above the law in a tweet.
He wrote: “May God’s judgement & curse be upon those at Central Bank who believe that, despite the ruling of the courts, they are above the law & are greater than their creator.
“Your money, power, properties & wealth are for but a fleeting moment in the sands of time & echoes of eternity.
“Nigeria is for the living & not the dead. Obi-tuary (message of death) & A-tiku (death) are not our portions.
“The Lord of Hosts raised a standard against them & bound the spirit of death that leads them.”
The CBN had refused to obey the Supreme Court ruling as naira scarcity persists in the country with massive hunger in the land.
The apex court had recently ruled that both the old and new naira notes remain legal tenders until December 31, 2023.
