His statement comes days after CBN governor announced the redesigning of naira notes.
He said he would not comment on the policies of his successor at the apex bank, emphasizing that it is within the responsibility of it to do so.
“I told you not to push me. I am not going to, as a former governor of the Central Bank, I resist and I will resist you commenting on the policies of my successor in the office in whatever form and whatever way you put it.
“Anambra will respond as appropriate. Whatever circumstances that ride out from the central, the managerial authorities and physical authorities at the centre, whatever thing they decide and throw up and that is a national policy, be sure that Anambra will appropriately adjust and respond; so we have no problem with that,” he said
