Popular lawyer and human rights activist, Mike Ozekhome (SAN) has made a shocking revelation.

He said: “The naira swap policy by the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN has not affected the masses like the political class.”

“It affects politicians and vote buyers more than ordinary citizens.”

“Because a voter usually registers near his or her home – in some isolated cases, they have registered at a location far from their homes.”

“But the people that would be most hit by this policy are the politicians – at times using the ordinary man and woman as surrogates to protest and barricade roads so as to show how bad the policy is because they no longer have access to cheap money.”

“There are some individuals that are now richer than Nigeria on our N21 trillion budget.”
