With that, the President did next what he is known the best for — he tweeted! “SEE YOU IN COURT, THE SECURITY OF OUR NATION IS AT STAKE!”, he wrote (yes, all in caps).

While the bank had a stock of up to $3bn monthly in 2013 and 2014, it said the forex scarcity that hit the country lately had left it with roughly $700m.
