Nigerian Currency (faces) by Ikengawo: 6:14am On Aug 24, 2010
some of the faces on the nigerian currency are of figures that the nigerian populace generally detest, and i dont think this is right since they imposed their own image on them when they were dictating the nation.
some faced i'd like to see replace some of the dubious ones are

I forgive myself for all the comment made against you on your threads abt Nigeria, i thought you were a Nigerian.
Re: Nigerian Currency (faces) by Nobody: 2:31pm On Aug 24, 2010
I want Every Nigerian on it. It can be done if you print upto 150mill notes, you can have it. Just have every Nigerian send their pictures and name to an online database where they will be randmly picked while the printing process is going automatically. Every newborn's name will be sent in by the hospitals they were born in,


Fela Kuti, Wole Soyinka and Chinua Achebe ought to be on our notes!!!1

If we do this by quota system, hausa alone has 3 faces on our currency and Yoruba has only one. We should print a N2000 currency and replace Herbert Macaulays picture in that one. We can now live N1 note open for the highest bidder. If you pay us $1bn, we put your picture on the N1 note.
