Does what the CBN say make any sense at all. They are just talking without actually saying anything. Why is the printing process for the new notes different from the old ones. Is it not the same company that's printing the new notes? Why did the texture of the old notes not improve with dirt?
Furthermore, they failed to explain why the new notes stain white paper or white clothes. What happens if you mistakingly wash the new notes?

For your information I am Hausa/Fulani. So make your judgements

what they are saying basically is that , everything is the same, I don't also believe them hence I have tried it

tuoyoojo:
This is my take

This new note is not enough and would be unable to replace the old

With the new law of 20,000 max cash withdrawal coming into effect on the 9th of January and the old notes becoming outdated on the 31st , the demand for the new note would surge

This is done to stampede vote buying in Feb, after the election, we may return back to the old note o

It is, however, important to note that new banknotes are generally light when issued, then become heavier in circulation on getting in contact with dirt and moisture,” Halilu added


In other words, the bank notes are counterfeits when issued then becomes original when it gets in contact with dirt and moisture

I've always known we are way advanced in techno liegy than every other country on earth

you did not read it else you wouldn't have made this comment.

They are saying that the quality of the new naira note is same as the old one, if you get a newly printed old naira note, it will exhibit the same quality, the high ink deposit helps to improve the texture of the notes, the note gets heavier with time and those help to differentiate it from the counterfeited ones.
They could be lying but that's the summary of what they are saying, for those that read only the headline.

So, to me, anybody that goes about washing or scrubbing the note to test its quality, is on his own. Treat the note with respect,.

saintjimos:
My take is that they're many fake in circulation

When dealing with the new note , the security features should be checked

mycar:

lol, easy way out. just thank me and move on, I only don't like it when people rush to comment based on the headline when the body contains a different information.

Dem no even change colour. Dem only remove some colours from the original colour profile to reduce ink. I am sure to make it cheaper.

Your explanation is the most nonsensical explanations yet, I have read in my entire life! The note gets harder with time? Does the note has particles of IRON?

Foolish people really exist!
