Recall that the new Naira redesign policy, which was implemented by CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele, caused a nationwide crisis in which many Nigerians were unable to access their money.

However, Buhari told journalists after voting at Ward A, Sarkin Yara Polling Unit, 003, in Katsina, “I am aware that the money is not there like before for people to sway voters like they used to do.” “And if they bring out money, the people should pocket it and still vote their conscience.” He said

He also added, saying that “Godwin Emefiele has done well by reducing vote-buying with the New Naira redesign policy.” “And we are happy with such a move because it will reduce the chances of greedy and selfish politicians who are thirsty and desperate for power.”
