"You Can't Ban Spraying, It's Our Culture" - KSA To Soludo

Yup! And if the Abia state government wanted the Aba people not to keep building pyramids of garbage on the expressway, they should have given every Aba resident garbage cans.

Right?

the excuses we find for crime in this country. . .

If not for the fact that Sunny Ade is my friend's father and a respectable elder, i would have swore "thunder fire his mouth", but i would expect elders to think before they talk, afterall flies think before they perch of fresh shit!

That crazy culture of spraying money has to stop!With all the problems in the country, some dysfunctional human beings do not have respect and regards, all dey do is ponce around with their big pouts and throw money like it aint nothing,

if people are so interested in flaunting wealth, then why not attend to more pressing issues in order to move the nation forward,

It is a shame and it needs to stop point blank, to cap it all, some of these money throwers go home and start gnashing their teeth "lamenting about flexing borrowed money to pull effect"

Anyone caught throwing money about should be made to lick them off the floor with their own mouth and chew it, with a satchet of pure water provided to digest it OR  be shot pointblank at close range,  that way they would appreciate it better or what do you all think nairalanders?!

Good. So instead of the cheaper step of instilling public discipline and acountability by banning the terrible act of spraying money (among other means of defacing the Naira), you advocate Nigerian taxpayers money be used to re-print and recirculate much of our currency, right? This, despite the well-documented fact the printing polymer notes costs way more than paper currency?

Your past posts have indicated you live and work in the US. ergo, it's easy to conclude that you do not pay taxes to Nigeria. If you were doing so, you'd have refuted my assumption.

Now, tell me something i do not know. in your opinion how many cellotaped dollar notes have you come across in the US? This for my personal enlightenment even if it doesn't prove my point, so please reply.

i strongly agree with the law. . . just to give our Naira the dignity its deserved like other currencies.
I wonder how people think dancing on money, rubbing it against the floor while partying is a nice thing.

Ah!

that's what they are saying 

Me, i look forward to opening gifts given to me, not to engage my siblings in picking up grubby money from the floor.

Yes, what is so hard to understand that people who earn their money should be allowed to throw it as they choose?? What has spraying money to do with how the money is spent?? If I spray money on a bride and his groom, what in the world makes you think that money will not be spent for a good cause??? What has spraying money to do with solving important issues with people's wealth?? Is this not a case of trying to make a case for potatoes when we are talking of pots and pans??? HUH?

Infact, what has SPRAYING MONEY TO DO WITH NO RESPECTING MONEY?? How did you make that GIANT LEAP?

I want to believe that you don't understand the topic in discussion; but if i must guess, then you have just stated one of the reasons the law should come to stay.


Where did you get your stats from and how are you being fair to him by placing wrong number or %tage here?


I advice you to go through second page and see where somebody posted a part of the law.
It's not only meant for sprayers alone, it's for anybody who rough handles money; be it danfo driver, mamaput or the beggars on the street.

Not if you consider the cost of constantly re-printing currency notes to replace the ones Nigerians are quick to damage in exercise of their "rights" to damage Naira notes.

Currency notes were not meant to be trampled on.Why should we ask the Govt to produce "trample-proof" currency notes when the real issue is,unlike in developed nations,we simply have a penchant for rough handling our Naira notes

I have not mentioned of having the stats. I only mentioned that he is not being fair as he claimed to be.
However, like i said before, trampling on naira note is not the only reason the CBN made the law.

 
I respect your opinions, but it's a pity you have been sounding hypocritical here.
You have not even mentioned why you will not spray naira notes.


I guess Nigerians will want to see America pass the law before they can see any meaning in it.

 ???I simply dnt get it,  why do MOST Nigerians find it difficult to understand the need for us to learn to do things the rightway,  ?

Nobody is against the making of nw policies and enactment of nw laws but the bone of contention is how far this policies and laws have been implemented and enforced respectively,
I wasnt surprised to see the so called naira spraying law flouted the other day at a minister's weddin ceremony for her daughter.

For better imlementation and enforecement of this laws there is need for us(includin those with the powers that be) to have a second thought on change of attitude towards critical issues like this. wats is wrong should be i.d frm what is right, no sentiments or culture concepts should dictate the basis for arrivin @ such decisions.

WHat has my not wanting to spray to do with being hypocritical?? I do not spray cause I am not much into stuff like that but I do not see why my not being into such means I should support illogical laws that deny people the right to want to engage in such. I am reserved when it comes to things like such but I will not deny the people their right cause of my personal shortcomings or whatever anyone wants to call them in this case. Just cause I do not party does not mean I should support laws that ban people from being able to party. What the heck has that to do with being hypocritical in any way shape or form??? I do not believe we need to do things as America does it . I believe instead we should do things with common sense. Why is it better to ban people from handling the naira as they do than it is to demand that the CBN produce bills that are durable and able to withstand daily wear and tear and still retain it's value over a long period?


Should we ban dogs from pooping cause we have to clean up after them when they poop???

although it's unethical as per my personal opinion. people should be allow to spray and strain the naira notes as much as they want but they should also be ready to assume the costs that comes with printing currency notes. these kind of values shouldn't be legislated.

Those links were to show you that your idea that money is not meant to be trampled on is just same as me claiming money is not meant to be sweated on but it happens and it should be one of the factors to be considered when deciding what material we should use in making the money in the first place.

Unless you can show me evidence to say otherwise, then my stand remains. This is not rocket science my brother, this is simple logic. If Countries A and B each have currencies that undergoes the same wear and tear daily but Country A's currency seem to need replacement more often than Country B's currency does, I would think the first place we would need to look is the quality of country A's currency to find out what the heck is going on. LMAO!!!!

Again, Millions of dollars and euros are sprayed each night across countries and states and a portion of those bills are trampled during that same. BUT we do not see same laws being made in those countries. To Assume that trampling of currency notes is just a Nigerian thing is rubbish. If you have ever been to vegas strip clubs,you will note that it happens often down there everyday.

Who si already dealing with the bills from constant reproduction of the bills as we speak??? Is saving money in the long run by producing bills that are more durable really worse for the Nigerian people Huh LMAO!!!!

the question still remains. who would account for the short term costs??
