We dont have any where enough dollars to change all the hoarded naira.

And contrary to what you might think EFCC is watching the Bdc guys. Today, for example, across the nation black market traders have been raided.

Are you not aware?

Don’t mind these funny characters.

They keep seeing dirty everywhere in Nigeria. According to them, nothing can ever work in Nigeria and this policy will yield no single result.

They don’t know that CBN and EFCC know whatever they think they and corrupt politicians know.

This is what we have been trying to tell some foolish and shortsighted idiots here that these corrupt politicians and kidnappers that have been hoarding naira will be forced to start throwing it around as they can’t deposit it in the bank and some fools are here arguing.

Tinubu, Atiku and co, who packed money to buy votes will be choked; together with their BATstards.

See as 2007 naira note fine.

You are so uninformed

If they truly have notes kept for vote buying, it is as simple as using it to buy vote buying commodities like rice / beans / garri / palm oil and distributing directly to reduce their cash need for direct vote buying.

Maybe you are not aware, the food inflation which isn't corresponding with cost of production jump is being orchestrated by some political big wigs.
They go to communities that cultivate specific crop like beans, offer the farmers the cost of the expected harvest shortly before harvest and store it. When scarcity hits and distributors or wholesalers go to farming community they usually get food, they encounter a rigid inflated price because the politicians can afford monopoly.

Changing currency can't stop vote buying to any reasonable extent.

If you live outside the country and you have one million naira under your bed in Nigeria, you are a hoarder. Nothing stops you from running a Nigerian bank account with a debit card.

P.S The hoarders know themselves and why they choose to keep their illicit wealth away from the eyes of the banking system.
Have you seen one million under anyone's bed? Why not restrict yourself to evidence and stop talking like a lynch mob

What we have seen is ONE photo of ONE NOTE and you are parroting hoarding like a religious fanatic.

Is there any law against one million under your bed ?

You are one of those who hear "Thief" and rush to carry tyre and petrol.

Use your brain, ask questions and stop reacting like bad chemicals

On this thread we have seen ONE photo of ONE 500 naira note from 2007 .

That is NOT EVIDENCE of ANYTHING

There is no reaszon for any rational person to hoard naira when they could easily convert it to gold or dollars

That hoarding theory is for people that believe in spirit husband and sudden wealth by grace

You're not so smart. If the bureau de change should accept bundles of old note and deposit such money to the bank. He will be arrested.. This policy is a trap in disguise!


NO, HE WILL NOT. This is nigeria. Stop deceiving yourselves.
Are you the only customer BDC has for that day? Does he really need to take the money all at once straight to bank or won't he use it to buy and sell currencies to others thereby spreading the money evenly?
Will he be the only one depositing in the bank that day?
Will the money not circulate within and out the bank before close of work?
Do they really need BDC operators to clean the currency?
Churches, importers, travel agencies, car dealers, bars and nightclubs, casino even banks and any business that handle money in bulk would move billions in less than 10 trips under just 1 weekend sef.
Vans go just come house exchange am with clean notes & give to citizens over counter (circulation). Then Oga go show them love. Simple

Now look at it this way…

Can you count how much illicit billions of naira that is stashed in Lagos alone for instance or Kano or Kaduna?

Now, this is by different people. Do you not think that the BDCs will be overwhelmed with such transactions and it’s also possible that CBN has laid siege for them because CBN knows that BDCs are likely going to be the conduit pipe for people to spend their stashed cash.

You see, I am well informed about the level of corruption in our beloved country. We're not talking here about ordinary yahoo boys storing billions of naira. These money were probably made from illegal arms deals, illegal refineries, billions of dollars borrowed to fight BH etc. How much power do you think the CBN governor has? He doesn't even have the power to do anything. He works for the president.

OK so he finds that some cabal member who is also a general is buying millions of dollars, and he does what? Before he even gets to tell his boss what is going on, word has gone to boss about his own illicit deals, and his boss will announce his replacement with immediate effect. Next thing EFCC will raid his home and put him on trial and the story will die a natural death

You're living in Nigeria bro. There's a reason we are where we are today.

What you don't want to know is that these men get forex traders that can transfer even 10billion naira into dollars, buy properties etc. 1month is too much to change money except you are stupid. They will only loose a few naira

Sorry, why can't they deposit it in a bank? The bank will even send a bullion van to collect it and return new notes to them next day. Banks are looking desperately for cash to shore up year end results.

Let's not see every event through the lense of politics. Na beginning of craze be that.

Next thing people will see Messi endorsing a Nigerian politician.

How is that relevant to this thread and the photograph. How is that HOARDING

so when police find cocaine in somebody's house it is hoarding?

What exactly is the definition of hoarding?

Being in possession of stolen or illegal money?

Look at the picture closely. That is a bundle.

If 2.7 trillion naira out of 3.2 trillion is outside the vaults of the commercial banks, that is currency hoarding.

What does that have to do with banknotes

I can see you are too lazy to use your own brain

Imagine the nonsense you are talking are bank notes supposed to be in bank vaults? Is that what they are made for?

It does not occur to you that that money could be in the hands of ordinary Nigerians who do not have bank accounts
3 trillion for a population of 200 million works out as 15000 naira per person .on average
Do we have the facilities for cashless transactions?
