The Centre, at a press conference on Sunday in Abuja, said Matawaalle has undemocratically continued to blame his failure at the polls on the recent naira redesign policy as well as the Nigerian military.
DAILY POST has reported that Governor Matawalle had in an interview with DW Hausa, alleged plots to punish him, Ganduje and El-Rufai over their stance on the new naira policy.that all polling units in his state were flooded by military officers with intent to intimidate voters. “Some of the governors of these states lost in the elections or their proteges lost, while some of the governors that did not challenge the Federal Government on the policy also took beatings at the polls. Matawalle should thus ask himself why he is the only one blaming the Federal Government for his defeat by a better-articulated opponent.”
