The Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has described the recent litigations by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission against naira abuse as a misplaced priority.

According to him, the practice of spraying money is more cultural to the Yoruba and Igbo.

“There is a cultural spirit in Yoruba that forces you to spend money uncontrollably at your exciting moment. I’m sure the spirit will be tamed when people have public knowledge of possible penalties for naira abuse. The commission should not place cart before the horse,” Oluwo said in a statement on Wednesday by his press secretary, Alli Ibrahim.
