I stopped the old naira collection since Thursday, I know that Buhari and Emefiele got no chill so for now, I sourced the smaller denominations which isn’t on the redesign list. Though I’m not quite a cash person but I need small cash from time to time to buy soap, toothpaste and all the basic yet minor items.

The new notes are circulating quite well in Enugu and I know that the better part is having majority of the notes in the banking network, so I don’t personally see the reason for panic, the only thing keeping the new notes from circulation is the availability of the old notes, if Buhari and the CBN sticks to their words and the old notes seize to be legal tender by next tomorrow, the new notes would circulate well.

Enjoy this naira redesign, moment it is a once in a real long time experience, this one would not be as tough on the common man as being predicted. It is worth the stress.

No rush in life
The new naira go circulate

I see it is a price for the betterment but where I will be angry is if after common man go through the stress of depositing back their money and they extend it

It's still to your advantage. No value lost

The old notes are still much in circulation that's why the new notes looks like it's scarce but once the old notes cease to be a legal tender the new notes will take over fully. It will be tough at the beginning no doubt but then it's been tough since 2015.

The deadline us ok by me. We all must pay prize to give this country a new life.

No going back on 31st deadline.
