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

Dis law is not enforceable, imagine 3 tattered hungry looking olopas coming 2 arrest d bride & groom on their wedding day, with everybody around, i mean d law is utopian, characteristic of soludo's policies - d minimal kobo withdrawal stuff, d 1 digit stuff. Let d police arrest themselves first 4 abusing Nigerians, instead of arresting Nigerians 4 abusing d naira. Bullshit ! another case of mistaken priority,  d national assembly is legislating on dress code

see,  and now another person tries to assume to  know my personal life> na wa oo,  Actually if you must know, I was partly in Nigeria in December and will be back there in 2 weeks or so again. Please ask questions of people to understand their personal life instead of making assumptions that are based on nothing factual. You do not know me. I happen to understand that country just as much as the next man does. I do business down there and up here. I pay taxes there and here. I work with folks who are here and there. Come on!!!

I'm totally with KSA on this one. How can they ban spraying?

               Please your highly welcome back.
spraying is a way we africans show off our stupidity.
  how can one spray money on public only to receive a mare praise when a bigger challenges awaits him behind.
          workers salary not paid bank loan still paying.
                tax no way, the road lead to his manssion has turn to mansion thing.
                          I see no sense in spraying.

Even though i don't see how  banning spraying of money should be compared to banning babies because they poop, i will still take the pains to relate them.
Unlike kids who learn how and where to poop when provided with some lessons,  their adult counterparts in Nigeria have been provided with loads of lessons and informations from CBN and NOA times without numbers. Naija residents will confirm this to you. Any living Naija resident who denies this may not have been sincere with you.

Ummm,  again, you can not force people into personal responsibilty. I gave the baby example beleiving that people will also understand that it takes time and also example. But I guess I may have to spell it all out. If you go to the doctor's office, you may see a sign on the wall that says it may take anywhere from 3 months to 3 years to potty train your baby and you need to be patient and at the same time continue to provide the baby with lessons and push in the right direction. Again, putting up laws to ban people from expressing their right as way to make them handle is not the way I would handle it. Providing them with better notes and explaining to them how handling it better will save them money and the nation money in the long run would be a better way to go. But then again, why would I want to save the country money when more than half of the money goes in the pockets of thieves in the end, LMAO!!!!


This is Serious!!!!! LMAO!!!! There is a serious catch here,  Is there really reason for me to want to handle the naira better when most of the money saved will go in the hand of thieves as it has for decades in the past ???LMAO!!! Why should I care if the naira is handled right or wrong when the government wants to stifle me instead of dealing with the MAIN Issues out there. I mean Nigeria looses more money daily from corrupt leaders and thieves in the house but NOOOO,  instead SOludo wants to focus on banning the small man from spraying the little of the money he can get and be proud of . LMAO!!!! IN essense it is better to loot the money than to spray it. LMAO!!!

NIgerian looses billions to thieves and evil criminals but NOOO,  it is the small amount of money that get's trampled by mistake or at parties that we put up as the biggest issue to be dealt with and we need a law for. What about laws against looting and purnishments that they should face???

You're the buffon here, Nuzo. Spraying had been (and still remains entirely) a Yoruba culture ever before your Ibo forefathers crawled out of their rat infested hellhole. Oloriburuku Olosi.

Chief Osadebe went to the US to play live. I was told the Ibos and other non-Yoruba in attendance sprayed him (although they were not as good as the Yoruba) and the poor man enjoyed it.

Nuzo, Omo Ibo, where did I say that naira was "a [Y]oruba property alone"? Ko ni dara fun iyalaya re.

Omo Ibo, me I no send you o. If you like make you go commit suicide.

That i said you were ignorant and a tribalist does not mean i intend to insult you. I only responded according to your comment and your person.

I am not here to defend the Igbos or any other tribe that spray money, that's why i surpport the law. And what has Osadebe being sprayed got to do with me? Please i don't have any beef with you or any Yoruba person.
I just hope the law works. Whoever is caught wanting should be prosecuted, be it any tribe in Nigeria.

@ajibade
 
I responded according to your comments and not your person.

"Dem" don hijack this thread  Wey Willy2,im dey miss action o! 

 There is this tendency amongst officialdom to make decrees or create laws or supposed law, e.g. ban on indecent dressing in Lagos, Governor Ameachi claiming he will arrest relatives of militants, etc,etc.

On what legal basis or does Soludo have the right to enact laws in a sense superceding the legislature, i believe he can give directives with legal standing. However, it seems there is an attempt to create unlawful law that then becomes practice without legal basis.( consider how many ladies were harassed by Lagos police, before the police commissioner denied all)

I am not in disagreement or agreement with this practice. Nonetheless, you cannot legislate against cultural preference or expression.

Which culture? when was paper money invented? very soon, you'll adopt 419 and drug dealing into our culture too. Don't push me please, if an ibo man took your girlfriend/wife, go settle it with him without dragging the yoruba's to mud because of your closed reasoning. Spraying money is not a yoruba culture by a long short. I am not sure of the origin but it must have been one of these learned attitudes we imbibe from God knows where.

I would too but so far, all I have gotten is assumed impacts that spraying has on the economy and nothing substantial. It hurts me so that Nigerians would sit and watch this happen to them without demanding a more thorough explanation of his reasoning for this law.

In as much as i no send you too, i no wish you bad.

I wasnt the one sounding as if i was going to commit siucide. After all, the law has already been passed.


Most people have admitted that sprayers are part of the destroyers of naira note. So it will be very unfair to allow the law affect only market women and danfo drivers.

Soludo should ask his brothers to stop sending 419 letters!
I think that would have a positive impact on Naira and Nigerian economy.

I rest my case!
