Yes the old naira notes don't remain a legal tender in Nigeria anymore but why is the new naira note which is now the legal tender in the country not in circulation?
I left Nigeria late January only to see booming stories on Naira scarcity.I can even see that some Nigerians are in support of this, claiming it would stop vote buying of a particular presidential candidate.Some Nigerians are suffering and happy because of the Naira scarcity.
Now what if that presidential candidate wins after the Naira scarcity issue.
The Nigerian government are playing games with the well being of over 200 million people and some people are happy about it?

Good question. If he wins, then we know that he's the one the vast majority want. That's what happens in an ideal situation so that when the sufferings come, we know that people imposed it upon themselves clear-headed.

On the flip side, you cannot leave 133 million people living in multidimensional penury and 20 million kids out-of-school and you expect your party to win an election. APC should be apologizing for destroying Nigeria's economy, not stashing money away to buy votes after subjecting the electorates to abject poverty.

Because it is not available.

Emefiele lied on banks that they are hoarding. When people destroyed the banks and burnt them down, did they see any new note inside?

@the emboldened

That's because politicians are mopping them up for vote-buying - something Buhari is trying so hard to stop. This, my faceless friend, is common sense.

They did not print enough. The cost of printing is high. They foolishly started what they cannot finish.
