Kachalla Balleri, a notorious terrorist leader, has slammed the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) for the scarcity of new naira notes.
According to Balleri, the apex bank’s policies are working against the poor, who he claims live from hand to mouth.
Despite the scarcity of new naira notes, Balleri claimed to have bought weapons with them.
According to Daily Trust, the terrorist leader flaunted the newly redesigned naira notes in a video.
This video comes just weeks after CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele stated that the policy was designed to reduce terrorism and kidnapping in Nigeria.
Ballari went on to say that some poor Nigerians have yet to receive the new notes.
He said;
Tribalism will not solve Nigeria’s problem. Only justice will solve the problems. The poor don’t know what naira redesign means. Some of them don’t have N10,000. They live from hand to mouth. But for those who have millions; it’s their own cup of tea. Many of those poor have not laid their hands on the new notes. But those considered terrorists have them in bulk.
We have bought weapons with new notes so that we can fight them. Now we are waiting to hear what they will say next. We are doing what we are doing for the sake of God and the poor we are living together, not the government. We have no problem with whosoever wishes to relate well with us.
