We are in tough times

Update as at today NO ONE IS COLLECTING OLD NOTES.

The banks did not help with sufficient circulation of the new notes, now we are stranded.

How are we going to get to the office this morning 😭😭😭😭😭😭.

The Bus Stop is filled with humans of organisations with their laptop bags, launch bag, and bottle water with lemon inside.

If you see me at the bus stop standing near you, it is because I don't have New Notes.


My fellow Old Naira notes employees, how are we coping.
Copied!

After working for days, it was time to go home. Meanwhile, days before then while going to work, i noticed that my bank branch that's close to my work place was opened, unlike a week before and i was delighted about that; at least i will be able to withdraw some cash for transport while returning home ( that even prompted me to spend the cash on me).

On getting to the bank, the security man i met asked for my purpose of coming ( to my own bank ooo, when in the past, they were the one begging us to patronize them). i made it clear i was there to withdraw some cash; he gave the usual response, " we are not giving cash, there is no cash".

I was angry and confused at the same time. I had no penny in my pocket and POS was not anywhere around there; i haven't seen anyone and that bank was my only hope. So many thoughts flashed my mind; " will i trek from the island to the mainland"? " " Will I beg motorist " " will i go back to sleep at work"?

Immediately, i quickly restrategise by telling the security man i would like to apply for a new ATM card ( truthfully, that was in my plan as i have lost the one i was previously using).

After gaining access and filling the ATM card form, i was asked to wait, when it was my turn to be attended to, i was told the system is down. I was angry. Immediately i thought of using that opportunity to get some cash in whatever way it was gonna be done! After All, my going home that morning was dependent on me getting cash from the bank.

I quickly told the customer care officer that i would like to see the manager. She said the manager was in a meeting, thereby using that opportunity to ask for the purpose behind my request. I explicitly and sincerely told her my plight and its urgency. She came up with the usual " there is no cash, even me doesn't have cash". I asked her how she got to work and how she intend to go back home. After so many back and forth and how determined i was, they took me to one office and gave me 1500 Naira in 100 Naira denomination which was enough to take me home. I collected it and left.

Its Quite not easy going to work and coming back. But we are pushing.
