Buhari govt will never recover from the aftermath of #EndSARS. Crypto played a key role during that protest and they're already preparing the stage to attack crowdfunding for any plan Soro Soke Generation have towards 2023.
They have control over MMO, bank accounts, now crypto.

If this policy of banning #Crypto came way back in 2017 or so, this government can still be excused. But in 2021, with massive adoption? Institutional inflow? Introduction of Decentralized Finance? Haabaaaa!! We should be forward thinking na. The "joke" is on Nigeria #Buhari.
