The RCCG General Overseer lamented the naira’s declining purchasing value in his sermon.
He questioned the FG’s decision to redesign the naira at a time when many people are in need of food and money.
Do you realize what is going on in our country, he asked? It no longer makes sense.
Even the paper it is printed on is not worth our current naira.
“And while people are starving and scrambling for cash to buy bread to eat, our bosses are considering beautifying the Naira,” the Redeem Pastor said.
The N200, N500, and N1,000 banknotes will be redesigned, the Central Bank of Nigeria said in late October.
