The Founder of Omega Fire Ministries (OFM) International, Apostle Johnson Suleman, has waded into the naira scarcity challenge hitting Nigerians, saying the country has never had it so bad.
Suleman said this in a tweet on Friday, promising God’s intervention in the nation’s affairs.
The Herald can report that many Nigerians have been lamenting a shortage of cash in circulation owing to the naira redesign policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
On Wednesday, the Supreme Court ordered that the old N500 and N1,000 notes which the CBN said ceased to be legal tender on February 10, 2023, should remain in circulation until December 2023.
However, many Nigerians have been reluctant to collect the old notes, citing the president and CBN’s silence on the matter.

“I know this period is harsh, terrible and turbulent for Nigerians. I see hunger everywhere. People can’t access their own cash…Nigeria has NEVER had it this bad…Be assured, GOD is aware and will send light at the end of this tunnel,” Suleman said.

In another tweet, Suleman expressed delight that many candidates in the 2023 general election have been begging Nigerians for votes, saying it showed a commendable shift in the nation’s politics.
“I see so many leaders going about begging for votes..this is what they would naturally never do.. God bless you Nigerian youths for changing the narratives…
“The ‘youths’ I am talking about know themselves..not those still endorsing leaders that put us in this current mess,” he said.
