The New Naira Coins And Polymer Notes

I like the coins    but the notes  It's all good tho' 

The new notes are good  but i expected the two naira coin to carry the head of our loving,caring late head of state  SANI ABACHA



WETIN UNA THINK



I WAN ASK SOLUDO IF WE CAN STILL CHANGE IT.

soludo says the coins will be lighter than previous ones and about 60% cheaper. The cost of production for the notes has fallen by 50% too.

My concern is what the coins will actually buy.
 Imagine carrying 20 or so of the coins, yet it won't even buy you say a bottle of soft drink.
the benefit then, certainly does not justify the effort. the British pence and the US cent have some values and hence makes portability sense. Remember one of the characteristics of money is portability.
I am afraid that this might end up being a wasteful idea as no one will in the end use them.

I AM AFRIAD OF NIGERIA. no matter  the new currencies. things remained the same. the poor remained poorer. the rich is getting riches every day.

Thank you  my brother. Releasing those coins is an attempt to curb inflation.Soludo probably knows that the economic indicators show that it is practical to bring out denominations less than =N=5. .Also,in response to an earlier post i was told the notes are smaller than the current ones.

The new naira notes are  simply off the hook! I like them.

But I wonder, did they actually make the N20 note to be that way because of the nigerian police who has that as their official 'egunje note'?

just curious- is there 50kobo coin as reported by most dailies?

and how can i change my own naira to the new ones? I travelled out of the country with some wraps of N50 and N20 naira notes. Too bad, i might as well keep it as a monument- the old naira notes.

i know they are but i probably won't be in nigeria until december. poor me. the money is wasted.

na wa ooo.

hmmmmmmmmmm its beautiful  am jealous

Hello Dudes,

Indeed we naijans are Owambe  4 truth. I've just  heard some naijans are already bying the New Notes(N50) for thrice the price(N150).I guess thats another showing  off moved move demonstrated.

Talk about Self Inflicted Inflation

I like both the new notes and coins, especially getting rid of the arabic inscriptions on them and displaying our main three languages, Yoruba, Hausa and igbo(WAZOBIA).

Its about time we start celebrating our own culture.

Good job mr Soludo.

i really love the new notes. especially the 20 naira note. i simply don't understand all the barage of criticism the notes have been receiving. and thank God they removed the stupid arabic on it. whose idea was it to have it there in the first place?

The notes are not too bad, except that the public at large have to be well tutored and educated the need to handle the notes safetly without abuse.
