Thank you very much for this. Really appreciated.

If only the redesign and swap could just mimic that one?

Today, i was at the Gtb branch on Oba Akran and there were irate customers barking at the bank workers, holding them accountable for the botched redesign policy. The bankers kept a blank polite face which simply infuriated the customers the more. The customers did not realize that it's down to professional training grin

A lone voice now said rather quietly that its the CBN to blame and not them. They are just scapegoats.

The CBN governor was being very economical with the truth. Rumor had it that Buhari wanted a currency redesign when he assumed office in 2015 but Emefiele was dead against it. He was already incensed at Buhari's interference in bank matters such as fixing the exchange rate which has been the primary reason the economy has been in tatters since 2015

Buhari wanted a redesign naira early on to make worthless the looted cash of politicians stored at home. Buhari redesigned the Naira in circa 1984 for that purpose. I remembered period clearly. The rumor was most likely true

Had Emefiele ever wanted to redesign the currency any time during Buhari's term in office, the president would have definitely given him the goahead.
Buhari should have redesigned the naira before the 2019 election and watch the effect in 3d

How is he confused? Or you're the one who doesn't understand what he's saying, read it again or ask someone to help you if you can't, the confused person here is you.
i am in a better position to explain all the things he has been doing or saying. You lack comprehension.
1. 10th February is the dead line and again 10th - 17th February is the grace period.
2. After the deadline, banks will still collect old notes.
3. CBN is the only bank to accept/change the old notes after deadline.

If you followed it up you will understand that he is confused and not straightforward. Next time don’t just jump like a frog into commenting because you can quote. Mumu!

Many people still go with the wrong impression that banks are the problem. There's so much emotion and ignorance flying around. Nobody should go thru all this suffering because buhari wants to redesign naira notes.

I think at the end of the day, buhari and emefiele are two very incompetent men nigeria is unfortunate to have heading very sensitive positions. Forex management, emefiele failed. Naira management, the guy still failed.

You can easily pick holes in buharis policies. They are so mundane and pedestrian. The same buhari said BVN and NIN will fight corruption, 419 and kidnapping, we are still here. He had come up with another horse shit. These guys have set nigeria back. If only we Nigerians would choose to be enlightened

Why is Tinubu d only candidate shouting like a mad dog?
Why is Tinubu disturbing d airspace about it?
Why is Tinubu attacking his own party on that?

Others are silent because the pains experienced by nigerians will boost the acceptance of their party above apc

Especially those who haven't decided

If buhari was say contesting for a 3rd term, you think he will allow such policy

Because vote buying will push too much money into circulation, causing inflationary pressure.

So you don't know Nigeria experiences hardship few months after a general election?

Emefiele wants to stop that.

How is suffering for cash in the midst of fuel scarcity a "little sacrifice"?

Does the constitution make for Nigerians to suffer under government policies for a better nigeria?

How is it Emefieles job to prevent vote buying? Is there any provision in the CBN act that states that the CBN has a responsibility to stop vote buying?

How does vote buying will push too much money into circulation, causing inflationary pressure?

What is responsible for the inflation the country has been experiencing all this while? Is it vote buying?

Cash Swap: Old Banknotes Redeemable Only at CBN after Deadline, Says Emefiele

•Insists old N200, N500, N1000 no longer tenable after February 10

•Pledges no Nigerian will lose their money, seeks support

Emefiele is a useless man. He must be a drunkard. He said people could swap after deadline.
If banks reject it, so individuals should trek to CBN? Who does that?

If you think this exercise has anything to do with the average Nigerian then you are among the 90% sadly. Emefiele has just created an avenue to receive bribes. The demand for dollar will increase now because that's the only currency you can bribe emefiele with. It is the same old cycle of devaluing the naira against the dollar. Emefiele will now clean money for politicians and big criminals while receiving 20% in dollars as bribes. He and Buhari are just enriching their pockets same deal Buhari did in the 80s. Turns out old tricks can still work.
It takes an ultra satanic kind of greed for a CBN governor to be looking for bribes.

Nigeria has the current set of unintelligent power brokers and cabal in Aso Rock

So of what use is the deadline if CBN would still exchange cash

You want to mop up 3 trillion before February 10 you claim you have only achieve 1.3 trillion

You want POS to exchange note yet limit Thier withdrawals to 500k a week. How will POS make enough profit on 500k total transaction without increasing charges


.

Have you been to CBN before? it's very difficult to access it. It's better you redeem now than wait to do it at CBN.

He once hoarded Election materials because he wanted to contest for President. The man understands the power of leverage which is the currency to cash out in politics.

500k is more than enough for POS agents to run their biz.

The aim is to go cashless, hence the reduced production of paper notes.

Make POS agents begin use this time to think of another business to do, before they're left behind, when bulk of the country fully integrates cashless transactions.

A word is enough for the wise, otherwise, na village una go dey go do una POS business.

Commercial banks can accept them from citizens but they will only credit accounts and not pay cash. And the banks can redeem them from Central Bank. A very good move from the CBN.
