The Presidency says the talk about an interim government is being pushed by people who are afraid that they may lose their elections.

The Presidency says the claim that President Muhammadu Buhari is working towards an interim government is absolutely false.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu in a statement on Friday, February 17, 2023, said the president won’t truncate the democracy he has helped to keep alive in Africa.

Governor Nasir El-Rufai had earlier described the lingering naira crisis in the country as part of an alleged plot to scuttle the forthcoming election and install an interim government.

He maintained that the naira swap policy was engineered to ensure the presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, loses the election.
