Our ‘Bosses’ Intend To Make Naira Beautiful Even When It Can’t Buy Bread – Adeboye
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, on Friday, spoke against the planned redesign of the N200, N500, and N1,000 banknotes by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
The cleric expressed displeasure that the Federal Government is bothered about the redesigning of the naira regardless of the falling value of the national currency.
Adeboye, who spoke during the church’s November Holy Ghost Service with the theme, ‘Let It Rain’, added that the naira does not even worth the paper it is printed on as people cannot afford to feed.
“You know what’s going on in our country. It doesn’t even make sense anymore. Our naira now is not even worth the paper it is printed on,” he said at the program that took place at the RCCG’s international headquarters along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
“And while people are hungry, trying to find enough money to buy bread to eat, our bosses are thinking of making the naira more beautiful, even if it can’t buy bread, at least, it will look beautiful. Oh Lord, have mercy,” he said.
According to him, things have become funnier in Nigeria. “We have problems in the land now. Things seem to be getting funnier and funnier. If you don’t learn to laugh in Nigeria now, you will develop hypertension.”
