Nigerian naira bank notes are some of dirtiest in world. Several microbial studies to identify organism they carry have been done many years ago before the prevalence of mobile communication and internet.

Ebola is spread by direct contact with bodily fluids of carriers of the virus, including sweat.
We all know how market women tie the notes in their wrappers and tuck it close next to their skin to prevent pick pockets. People lick or spit on their fingers to count money. I believe naira carries the spit of millions of Nigerians. Don't even think of those who pick thier noses, butchers and suya sellers who cut their fingers and you see blood stains on the monet, etc. You can add to the list.

Besides, our naira notes are always damp and wet ensuring that pathogens like viruses have a conducive environment to multiply waiting for the chance to infect the next victim. I shudder to think of the mass infections.

Please wash your hands and carry a small hand sanitizer bottle to rub if you touch dirty money.
I really pity bank workers and those who handle bulk cash.

Hmmmm money again let's go back to the days of coins

So ,if I give condor 1k make I no collect change. From ipaja to abule egba. God go save us

samflexxy: Hmmmm money again let's go back to the days of coins

We will need trucks and cranes to carry the heavy coins considering the amount of cash we spend daily.

Head of First Bank E- business said recently on Channels TV that cash withdrawals from FBN ATM machines around the country averages N1 trillion daily!!!!

It is a big problem. We need to rev up implementation of the cashless policy.

Strictly speaking, it made me wonder. He made that comment live on Channels TV as part of their media event during roll out of PayPal.

He is FBN top official, so I expect him to have his facts correct.
