Was at Access Bank last Tuesday where I gladly collected 20k old 500naira notes thinking that CBN had complied with SC ruling.
Was later pissed off when I realised the money was being rejected. Was even more pissed when same Access bank rejected the money.

Though the policy wasn't a bad one, but CBN failed woefully to print enough notes & strictly monitor the distribution.
Effect is that so many small businesses have crumbled & Nigerians are being subjected to untold hardship for lack of cash. embarassed

Doubt if Nigerians can continue like this for long. It's either CBN issues enough notes or they revert back to the old notes.


I was at Justrite Ibafo yesterday, and right before my very eyes, they collected old notes of up to 4,000naira. But they have a policy that they won't give you change if the item(s) you bought are less than amount you paid for (in old note).

Shame didn't even catch me cheesy cheesy

What I haven't done before cheesy cheesy the experience was killing.


Painment was I had to borrow 100naira to come back to my place of business.

Sofia pains was all the sales I made today were mainly transferred into my acct,some sef I never see alerts.

Foolishness was only #300 followed me home at all at all naim bad.

The other day I bought 10k and the charges was 3k, honestly e pain me.

So this night after looking for POS,I saw someone I knew he was merciful to collect #200 for #1500.
For my mind....I be the richest woman in nigeria cheesy cheesy

Tomorrow I m definitely gonna queue at accessbank and wildraw money, because I cannot imagine dashing someone 4k.


So guys how have you guys bn surviving?
Well, I have been lucky. Madam works in the financial sector. Her sister own a shop in igbudu market and just two weeks ago someone came to my office and paid me for a deal, 100k cash.

The situation isn't funny at all and many Nigerians are really suffering due to this policy.

Let me share a very short and sad story with you.

I was at the market yesterday to get some groceries and provisions for the house. I made the payment via transfer because I didn't go with my ATM card. Unfortunately, I was debited immediately but the vendor didn't receive alert on his end.

I came to his shop around 3pm. You wouldn't believe that I waited till 6:30pm thinking that the alert will come in.

Lo and behold, Mr. vendor didn't get the alert.

I hard to return all the stuffs I bought. He collected my phone number and told me that he will call me once he sees the alert so that he can transfer my money back to me.

I was angry but I had to receive sense immediately because it wasn't his fault. He was just trying to play safe too.

I came home angrily and drank semovita with no Sugar.

The policy is just so annoying.

Maybe you transferred from Opay to another bank?


It may sound funny and unbelievable but I prepared it the same way you will prepare Pap.



No, he hasn't but he called me that he has seen the alert.

I haven't gone back to him yet due to my busy schedules of the day.

Some days ago,a grown up man fell down after walking for hours looking for money on empty stomach.

We had to give him water to drink,got him a loaf of bread,then contributed 2k for him,a family man for that matter with a wife n 4 kids waiting to be fed at home.

This is the kind of news that psychopath Buhari likes to hear

Are you in Nigeria at all angry angry e be like say you never experience network problems before while using POS

It depends on the bank. With Fidelity bank you will never experience network problem as long as the POS machine has network.

If not for callousness and wickedness, does Emefiele and Buhari not knowing how people are dying on a daily basis due to this useless cashless policy? I Waka the whole of Ikeja and no single bank have cash to give out. People are really suffering and hungry because of this shortcut cashless policy. Even in the UK that need to change the face of their queen to king had to give more time till 2026 before the old note will fade out. God will punish all these people that subjected us to this extreme hardship. Amen
