P-Square singer Paul Okoye has questioned the Nigerian Senate, asking where they were when the government allegedly hid palliatives meant for the people.
Paul Okoye slammed them for merely pretending to speak for the masses on the deadline for the old Naira notes, saying they don’t really care.
Recall that the Senate last Monday requested that the Central Bank of Nigeria extend the deadline for exchanging old naira notes from January 31 to May 31, 2023.
The Senate also requested that the CBN open an exchange window where people without bank accounts could deposit their old notes.
In an Instagram post on Sunday, January 29, Paul ‘RudeBoy’ Okoye criticized the Senate, claiming that the federal lawmakers would not have said anything if the situation did not affect them. In his own words:
“During pandemic, people were hungry, where was the senate when the palliative were discovered?
Same government was(sic) hiding food for their citizens, they were silent and dumb because it doesn’t affect them.
Now with the CBN naira redesign they became spokesman for the poor cos it affects them. Imagine there was no election. Aswear they won’t say pim!!
Naija wise up.
God is helping Nigerians to avoid vote buying
How they became spokesperson for the poor overnight and acting like the common man.”
