My Igbo brothers it is time to create plastic replica that can be sold at events venue. You do do transfer and you get a certain amount. Then you can spray that.

To be honest, i believe this ban on spraying naira is a waste of time and useless idea

First of all, the money that is sprayed at parties is never dirty. If anything, spraying the naira ensures preference for clean naira notes as these are the only types that can be sprayed.


Secondly, there is nothing you can do to prevent mutilation of naira notes. As far as naira is in peoples hands, it is bound to become dirty after passing through many hands. Whether you spray it or not, it will eventually be dirty and mutilated. If you want to keep naira clean, increase its value. You hardly see mutilated dollars because when something is valuable people tend to handle it with care

Thirdly, the law is a selective law. Why are only low level celebrities been arrested. What of high level politicians and their children that pour out cash at events like water


Finally, spraying cash is part of our culture. It brings happiness to both the giver and receiver. We spray money not only to show affluence, but also gratitude and appreciation. The law is made for man, not man for the law. It appears EFCC is less busy to have time to be chasing people spraying cash

Honestly, with all the salient points you raised up there, you might win a case against the FG and the EFCC combined concerning this Naira mutilation thing!

I'd advise you see Femi Falana to open a case file or what do you think?

There are many laws lying fallow without being implemented. Any day government remember to prove they are in charge they implement.

You know there is a law that says if you are carrying up to N10,000 you need police escort.


Wait! What?!

Evidence or I don't believe you!!!

The CBN and EFCC also need to start paying attention to many of this POS vendors. They usually overcharge and when they are asked why it is so, they will tell you, they bought the money they're using for business. Can you imagine.

Spraying money is a culture.

To avoid wahala just get yourself

Dollar
Cedi
CFA

And spray away without any fear.

Black people sometimes do like they have black brains. Look at them saying it's their culture. The law prohibits something, you say it's your culture, they're targeting you. SMH

POS is not supposed to be a business, but a point of service. It's supposed to be used by shops and businesses for cashless payments. It's now taken over because many people don't have access to ATMs and even banks. It's not the norm but a permission because our bank services failed.

I believe a significant number of Nigerians should face legal consequences for these offenses. It's concerning that even in religious settings like church, cash is casually sprayed. Particularly disturbing are instances where women, who often store money in their undergarments, contribute the most to the mutilation of currency

Cash sprayed in church? All these Muslim terrorists that hate church for no reason. You are a liar like your father the devil.

It is a bad behaviour that can be curtailed. Nigerians need iron hand. It is simply indiscipline and we pay no respect to national symbols. We can unlearn it.

I saw some people even saying that go to clubs in US, you will see them spraying dollars. We have a lot of bad and mad behaviour we think is normal but we no get who go tell us.

The symptom of this spraying is show off. That's it. Show off. It is a way to show that me I gave you o, let everyone see. We can't keep things in private. We must show off and oppress. There is a poverty of the mind that the self worth is tied to PDA, Public Display of Arrogance.

We want to be seen as good or rich. That is why there are so many religious people but ungodly nation. I commend the government for this step. See how they are arguing now, tell them to go to a function in US and start spraying, won't people look like you are mad This arrogance is what made people ditch the naira and start going for more expensive currencies to show that they have more capacity than another. "Ah, did you see Mr Linus, he sprayed $100 bills" That's it. To let them talk about you. Fake life and fake love. It has made people do criminal things so they too can be recognized by the people and we say the government is mislplacing priority? Nigerians will always talk. Always condemn like they know best but they will indulge in bad behaviour.

Before activists start claiming that they love us with fake lies, let government start enforcing the 'rare law'. Thank you Naptu2 becasue these people wey wan destroy our society are already saying it's the first time ever for a trans. They don't care about us as long as our society continues to rot and bad behaviour is the norm.

I remember that Soludo time, people joked that we go de stone you coin. They tried some coin notes and attempted redenomination but it didn't go for long.

Which denominations are on the floor? Those are not naira notes and the pictures are probably not from Nigeria. I've never seen or heard about congregation spraying money. What for? Maybe you are confusing wickend parties with the church of God. Be careful of how you denigrate the church falsely. There's consequence for every action.

Very good salient points.

Anytime anyone of your friends or family members is doing a party, attend it and spray as much Naira as you can afford there. Then get someone to video it, and then send it to EFCC on their social media handles. And when they eventually arrests and arraigns you for prosecution, then you or your lawyer should plead these your salient points in court on your behalf. Your escape might set a precedent for other subsequent victims of this invasive law by government.

It is only the personal poverty index that makes anyone to believe that there are no mutilated dollar notes.... Typical home alone buddies that never sees dollar bills except in the movies, which are usually immitations

Again, spaying of cash isn't a culture of any tribe in Nigeria, we are gradually becoming indisciplined and unserious citizens in the same proportion at which the corruption in the land is eating the soul of the country

My only problem is that, @EFCC is always clueless in front of the real thieves stealing public funds and will be going on full throttle against inconsequential misdemeanor.

Spraying of cash must never be misjudged as a crime.... Going to prison for such case is a slap on our justice system.... Fine is okay for this kind of offence or a moderate time community service as a punishment.

OP, spraying of naira or whatever currency is centuries old. It is part of our culture or society. Dem born us meet am. Dem born our papa papa meet am. It did not find its origin in the 1980. Please make a proper research.
And if what you are insinuating is that because it is "culture" then we should continue on that path, know that there's a "new" culture in town-don't mess our Naira up! We all can't keep doing the same thing and expect a different result abeg! Ignorance is ill-bliss wink
