Oga, I will say what I want to say. If more people use other channels there will be less people at the ATM. You guys are talking like this is the first time long queues are appearing at atms, it happens every Xmas maybe not to the extent of this year and if the people at CBN think like the way most of you are thinking it will still happen next year

Yes I agree.

Just accept the fact that you're an Afonjalistic bastaad offspring of ten men.

I actually did open the link you pasted and I wept for you...like literally wept.

How can you be proud that your forefathers were described AS THE BEST SLAVES??

Like seriously...the best slaves?

Please google 'breaking a horse' to understand how they beamed with pride at turning your 'free forefathers' into 'happy captives'

Haven't u wondered why native Indians weren't used as slaves in america? Infact it was rare to see an Indian slave...thats how strong their spirit is.

So you're proud that your forefathers were described as good dogs? Wow[/s]

You really don't need to throw insults. It's not necessary. Are you really saying there is no other way to access money apart from physical withdrawals? When you pay at a supermarket with your atm, have you not accessed your money? When you transfer to a customer via mobile money, have you not accessed your money? Shortage of physical cash is not and cannot prevent people from having access to their money in this 21st century.

open mobile money outlet in nigeria ...have you asked yourself why you find Bureau d change only in highly secured places like an airport in nigeria. If you open mobile money outlet for one street in ph, na small boy go come collect all ur money with a small pistol.

Unchallenged evidence is deemed admitted. You've not denied that you're a scratch faced Afonja!!!

So happy Xmas my dear Afonjalistic scratch face.

Oga you need to calm down. Nobody is preventing anybody from having access to their money
Yes there is shortage of physical cash, people should use other channels, if you take your atm to a shop and pay via atm or you transfer money, it will still go. So it is wrong to say people are being denied access to their money
CBN has focused so much on the Dollar issue this year that they have not expanded on their cashless policy. That is the real issue.

I posted this on an earlier thread,
What CBN needs to do is deepen the implementation of Mobile Money. In Kenya, once I have your phone number, I can transfer money to you. This also saves a lot of money in printing cash. Another option is to take advantage of cash based businesses and use them as mobile money agents. For example, I should be able to walk into a Petrol station or supermarket, deposit money in their account through their POS and they give me the cash equivalent. It will help this businesses reduce their cash calls and bank trips.

Oga you need to read well and it's not necessary to throw insults. We can agree to disagree. This not about supporting any policy or suffering. Check by Wednesday if you will still see those queues there. So it is wrong to say people are being denied access to their money.

Justiceotunne:


I am deeply awed by your calmness. Many would have flown off the handle with the barrage of insult hauled at you. You also do have a point in your submission. I'd like to meet u

redsceptic:


You appear not to know that 80% of Nigeria is unbanked.

Another stupid Afonja rant.

Free yourself from your slavery to your lords and masters... Fulani.

1wolex85:


I totally agree that CBN has performed poorly and yes I agree that there is a cash shortage. There is a difference between I don't have now and I am not giving you, the op is saying that they have deliberately blocked us from having access to our money which is not true. The moment I can't transfer or pay for goods and services with my Card then I will agree with him.

Wen u buy meat and pepper in the market u pay through POS too

Originalsly:
If you own a supermarket.... what would you do in the present situation when crowds of people would be swarming your business to receive cash? I'm waiting for a realistic response.
@topic.... the FG needs to clamp down on the Banks. The Banks know they would been to restock the ATMs more often this season but just refused to. I think they are creating this situation on purpose....when people run out of patience and begin to destroy the property and withdraw their savings they would have no one but themselves to blame.

1wolex85:


That is the crux of the matter. They need to be banked.Besides on this thread we are talking about atm queues which means those on the queue have account.

1wolex85:


Oga please read again! I can still transfer money on my phone without internet! and Yes if I go to Mile 12, as long as the aboki has an account number, I can buy pepper

idupaul:


The economy has clearly flunked and you are here saying nonsense , this cash scarcity is one of the side effects of hyper inflation if you don't know ,people need more cash to get fewer things and the cash is north available,the only solution will be to print more and devalue the currency further because this half with attempt to be moving digits round is nothing but fraud

BraniacX:


With a surcharge of N100+ on every transaction, multiply that by an average of maybe 20 transactions for everyday things like multiple t-fares, soap, consumables e.t.c and give me a reason why i should want to do that?
What if the recipient doesn't have an account?
What if the mobile phone network is poor and/or your bank network stalls?
What if you want to make a payment on something of higher value and it is larger than your daily maximum limit?
Cash has no other completely viable alternative for transactions in today's Nigeria and to claim otherwise is self deceiving! We will get there eventually but we're not there yet so the banks and the government via CBN should have known from experience that weekends and holidays are periods of heavy cash withdrawals and worked hard to reduce the possibility that people will be left without money to withdraw because this will reduce peoples confidence in the banking system which is not good

1wolex85:


Did you really need to call me a goat? How old are you? If you read my posts well, as long as you have a phone even without internet. This thing works in KENYA, Ivory Coast and Ghana. We even got GSM before these countries so what are you on about?

AlhajiSpray:



[s]It won't hurt if you admit to being a man with a _penis will it? Look at this useless transexual claiming to be a woman! Any way you igbo boys are well known for engaging in homosexual activities for money so I'm not suprised!

Are you hunting for your fellow anus lovers! Ha ha[/s]!

patchsk:


I think you're talking thrash.


How many people are banked in Nigeria?
And most importantly are you ignorant of the N100 fee on mobile transfers?

I buy pepper N50 and pay N100 commission.
