What he did was wrong yes! He really deserve the punishment, but in the real sense our Naira is now useless it doesn't only deserve tearing but burning as well, TomTom is now ₦20 can you imagine pure water ₦20 the only thing in my area that is sold for ₦10 is Chewing gum, ₦5 is now useless....
Everything is just useless in this country.

They don't have regards for our country and our money.

Hmm, mutilation of naira notes is a punishable offense but money laundering by El Chapo of Bourdilllon and solicitation of bribe by Ganduje is commendable, useless agency.

Shut that your dirty mouth. Let them respect our Naira, do so to theirs and you will get 10 years. Y’all berate your country and expect others to respect it.
You use your right hand to beat a child, you should use your left to drag him closer and advice him.

Get away you! go and sit down!! Why you won't try it with their currency is because theirs is valuable and worth not abusing, not a Naira that can't buy valuable items except in millions,.... a country that even when you're helping yourself they are still taking you behind, is what you call a country because you are the ones being favoured nonsense.
