“Are you aware that from 2027, there is not going to be a currency called Naira? It is going to be replaced by a currency called the eco-currency. The eco-currency is a combination of currencies from 12 African countries. These 12 African countries are member states of the ECOWAS, Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS.

You may or you may not know that plans are currently being finalised towards this eco-currency. This eco-currency is to mirror the type that is obtained in the European Union. All the countries that are in the EU, European Union are using the same currency. So this is just a replica of that model.

So beginning from 2027, Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal, Togo, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Côte d’Ivoire, Liberia, Sierra Leone, The Gambia, and Cabo Verde. We are all going to be using the same currency called the eco-currency. They say this eco-currency is expected to foster price stability and inter-border transactions but there are concerns.

There are questions of who is going to print the currency? Who is going to manage the currency? Serious concerns of outside powers controlling these currencies. Nigeria is pushing for not wanting France to be part of the outside power that will control this currency because of course you know that some of these African countries are using currencies that France are tied to.

So there are questions of if all of us come together, France, France again, France, France, we don’t want outside power controlling this currency. So Nigerians, I know that the tension and the pressure for 2027 general elections are very high but some of these policies are just going to be implemented alongside the elections.

If you have concerns, if you have questions, if you have any reservation about this policy, this is the time to raise your concerns. This is the time to begin to ask your questions, direct them to the appropriate authorities, to the appropriate quarters. Don’t wait for 11:45 when the policy is already implemented before you now start to say you want to protest. This is the time for us to come together, read this report, let’s raise the concerns right now.

11:45 is not the best time to protest. That is five minutes to go. It may be already too late.
So please share this video, tell everybody around you that from 2027 we are going to have a single currency alongside 11 other African countries…” –
