The All Progressives Congress (APC), Lagos State, says it is suspending its campaign activities ahead of the 2023 elections due to fuel scarcity and cash crunch resulting from the CBN’s Naira redesign policy.
This disclosed by the state Chairman of the party, Pastor Cornelius Ojelabi in a statement by the party’s Publicity Secretary, Mr Seye Oladejo, on Tuesday.
Ojelabi said the decision was made due to the scarcity of fuel and pain caused by the Naira redesign.
He said it will be insensitive to continue with the various rallies amid the situation of things in the country, adding that he had been inundated with several complaints.
“I joined my voice with those of other well-meaning Nigerians to call for the review of the Naira redesign policy to give it a human face and ameliorate the suffering of ordinary Nigerians,” he said.
“Mr Ojelabi said members of APC are not immuned against the development as he has been inundated with several complaints,”
“He joined his voice with those of other well meaning Nigerians to call for the review of the Naira redesign policy to give it a human face and ameliorate the suffering of ordinary Nigerians.
“He equally appealed that petroleum products should be made available in order not to jeopardize the preparation for the elections and reduce the negative economic impact.
“He enjoined all Lagosians to remain law abiding as all issues are resolved in due course.”
