A former chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomhole, has said that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) does not have any business with how elections are conducted in the country.

Oshiomhole said there was no section of the CBN Act that empowered it to oversee the conduct of free and fair elections, adding that the naira redesign policy purported by the CBN to curb corruption and vote-buying during the 2023 elections was “senseless”.

The former Governor of Edo State stated these while fielding questions on a monitored program.
