Ganduje<\/a>, \u201cWe are now ready to receive him and we have a lot for him to commission including federal government projects and state government projects. They are state-of-the-art projects\u201d.<\/p>\nGanduje, had in an interactive session with some stakeholders including scholars, legislators, political leaders and business community in the state, revealed that his government had requested the President to postpone the trip, saying that the state was deeply concerned about the hardship principally induced by the ongoing cash swap from old to redesigned notes.<\/p>\n
He said the decision was taken to avoid any unforeseen circumstance.<\/p>\n
Consequently, the state government wrote a letter to the President outlining the reasons why the planned visit is no longer auspicious at this time.<\/p>\n
In a statement issued on Saturday by Abba Anwar, Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, the decision to advise the President against the visit was endorsed by the critical stakeholders of the state.<\/p>\n
The statement by the governor\u2019s spokesman reads in parts: \u201cDeeply concerned with the hardship caused by limited time given for halting use of old Naira notes by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), and for security reasons, the Kano State governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, reveals that the state resolved and wrote to Presidency that, the visit of the President to commission some projects be postponed.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs we are waiting for this important visit, we found ourselves in this situation, which puts citizens into untold hardship. For security purpose we wrote to Presidency that President Muhammadu Buhari\u2019s visit to Kano be postponed.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe got an acknowledgement copy of the letter. People are really suffering because of this policy.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are no banks in most of our rural communities. How these people get new Naira notes is of great concern. Just look at what is happening in our urban areas, people go and spend hours upon hours in banks. And without any assurances of getting the new notes.\u201d<\/p>\n
But despite the Governor\u2019s objection, Buhari had made up his mind to go ahead with the Monday visit.<\/p>\n
Presidency sources had disclosed that he would go there to commission some projects implemented by the federal government.<\/p>\n
But during Sunday\u2019s visit to the President, Ganduje affirmed that he led the delegation to Daura over the issue of the ongoing currency swap and was happy with him.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cSeeing is believing. You can see that I have led a powerful delegation from Kano State on the issue of new naira notes and we have seen Mr. President. We have laid the complaints of the Kano people and we are very happy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
