Naira Scarcity: You’ve Endured Enough; Express Your Anger, Vote Out APC – Saraki Tells Nigerians
Following the crisis emanating from the scarcity of Naira notes and the Premium Motor Spirit, PMS, former Senate President, Bukola Saraki has appealed to angry Nigerians to shun violent protest.
In a post on his verified Facebook page on Wednesday, the former lawmaker urged those protesting the scarcity to reserve their anger and express it during the forthcoming polls by voting out the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
According to him, Nigerians have endured a lot of hardship imposed on them by the present administration.
He wrote, “I hereby appeal to the good people of Kwara State who went on protest earlier today over the continuing scarcity of petrol and the new currency notes to please maintain peace and remain calm.
“One can understand how these two negative developments have created untold hardship for our people. It is indeed a difficult time.

“However, while calling on the Kwara State Government to immediately introduce measures that will alleviate the suffering of the people, I want to urge our people that instead of embarking on any violent protest, they should express their grievances during the coming elections by voting against all the candidates of the party that has brought the needless crisis. Our people have endured a lot of hardship from this government.”
Saraki further stated that governance should be about solving problems confronting the people, stressing that the President Muhammadu Buhari’s government has failed in that regard.
“Where the government has failed in that regard, the people should reject such a party and its candidates at the polls. And this should be done peacefully,” he added.
