He stated;
“If we don’t clamp down on Binance, Binance will destroy the economy of this country. They just fix the rate. We have saboteurs. Look at what Binance is doing to our economy.

“They just sit down and fix anything they like. It’s a sabotage and we are trying to prevent that from happening henceforth.”
