Hi Guys,

Does anyone have any update on the CBN implementation of seizing BVN-less bank accounts? I live in a part of the world where I cannot readily obtain a BVN, since I have to be physically present to do so. However, I will be in Nigeria during the Xmas period and intend to obtain a BVN at that time. I have been sending money into my Nigerian account quite regularly, and now it appears all that money will be confiscated by the Nigerian ''cabal''. Will Xmas period be too late to save my money?

The banks are trying to resolve it. There's talk they may appeal the ruling

Wow! Thanks for the info. So you think I should be okay until Xmas?

Guess that depends on what the AGF decides eventually

Bro, would be sad to see my genuine hustle abroad go to the hawks just like that

We would have developed if obeying the law was part of our culture. It is a simply directive given since 2014.if you have not done yours till now ,means it either you were in prison since or you are part of those the system is trying to fish out for non compliance. All this sentiment using cabal should not touch your cash is bullcrap.over their you obey their directive evening if it wrong legally or otherwise. The AGF needs to mop up all this fund immediately before this thieving director and yahoo boys divert the money.
It time we pay for not obeying the laws.

Op, it is not CBN that is seizing money. Its the federal govt.
Have no fear. When u co.e xmas, do ur BVN and get full access to your account

u should ask yourself "what if I were the one".
The guy lives abroad. In a country where there is no BVN centre.
If u were living in osogbo and they say the only BVN is south west is in lagos, i am sure u would not have done BVN till now. Not to talk of when they that there is no BVN centre in Nigeria that the closeat BVN to Nigerians is in Angola. How are u going to do? And be reminded that many Nigerians abroad dont have their complete papers yet, so they cant even travel out.

Are you okay? What does my ''small money'' made genuinely outside of Nigeria have to do with Nigeria's development? Am I the one stealing off all your money and preventing you from developing? Other are taking money out of Nigeria but I am bringing money in, and you are here talking crap. Take time oh!!

I love this response. You must be Yoruba.


Op,
Thunder fire you! Give me your bank account and passcode and passport, with letter of authorization. I will personally walk into CBN and make sure your domiciliary account obtains waiver for excruciating cirmcumstances and all requirements for your BVN is put on hold till you return to this obodo.
Do you hear

If is stay is legal then no problem. The basis are obvious you only need to visit Nigeria embassy for more clarification on how to do your Bvn.it was clear to all and sundry that diaspora citizens should do theirs and it was on that the time was extended. We can not continue to tolerate illegality on the basis of sentiment. My grandmom did hers my aunty abroad did hers.he has no excuse except he his a fraud.For good 3 years he his still given an excuse.

there is a big difference, but i am not defending any. Just lets put things in the right perspective. CBN is a banker to the Federal govt, not the federal govt itself

You are an unthinking dolt. Why did the Nigerian government not have BVN centers in every country where there is a Nigerian embassy?

Don't mind that cow
