Because Edo State learnt their lessons when they voted Igbonedion and Oshiomole. They have experienced bad government enough, now they do not want evil people close to leadership in the country

Please stop this rough Play. Ogbemudia, Ambrose Alli and oshiomole are the best governors Edo/ Bendel has ever had.

fuckingAyaya:
Them say I dey smoke Igbo , buhari go jail Tinubu las las

No northern politician will work for the progress of an Igbo man. All this is geared for the Fulani to continue to rule through Atiku. Remember Atiku conducted buharis sons marriage, they are one.

LoL lay ambuish on who if worst come to worst people will start buying old note from each other and turn it to business....


Don't be shock sef say na Bank staff go start to buy the old note pass

At the end of the day na still masses go lose....

Imagine parting 300naira or 200naira jus to av ur money in new currency or posted in ur bank account...

What I know is the Vote buying jargons theory as been defeated anybody wey dem pay with old note to sell his or her vote will redeem is 2k or even if na 1k successfully now....

I jokingly told people I will buy old 1k for N500 transfer. One boy brought 2k for me to transfer N1,000 and I declined. Only for someone else to call me this morning if I am serious about buying old notes. I was shocked. How can you sell your old notes for half the price?

Oyaaa enter GOD IS GOOD MOTORS or BOB IZUA de come back

Be like na him village people send you so.

Coolsperm:
Tinubu is the major cause of this currency problem, Tinubu stole money Tru bullion van during last election

Why can't they just arrest him and let the country rest. If I had 1 billion naira cash in my house, they would have come to ask we where I got the money. Why not do the right thing instead of wasting money to print new notes?

President Buhari has declared 500 and 1000 illegal and that decision stands!!!.

It's very unfortunate that there is nothing state governors can do about it, they will only succeed in deceiving their followers ..

Those governors who are daring Buhari will end up complicating issues for their citizens, putting the citizens to more pains and agony, thereby making them to hate APC more..

All Banks across the Nation are working with CBN, and follow instructions from Emefele..

So after telling your citizens to use the old notes , where would they deposit the money at the end of the day, the same bank that is under CBN that is currently rejecting old notes?

No wahala, he should create central bank of Jigawa then, but a wise business man can never engage in that kind of business suicide..

Only uninformed idiots who will still turn around and rebel against the same governor tomorrow can be deceived with such lies


Urchings should also move to Kaduna and Jigawa too..

They all just want to ensure people collect the old notes from them come Feb 25th. I believe it's states due for governorship elections this month and next month that are making all these noise.

It's funny and annoying at the same time when you guys say someone supported a policy and he shouldn't complain. This is a good policy. The implementation is the problem. Let's stop talking like kids because of political affiliations.

Whether Atiku, Obi or Tinubu, whomever emerges as president will create a window for people to return their old notes. No sane president will ask you to go and throw your money away. Your money will only be tied down till then. Knowing this, I still don't give or take old notes. I can't come and be giving myself unnecessary anxiety.

Mariah Carey: Always be my baby

Verse 1]
We were as one, babe
For a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine
Now you want to be free
So I'll let you fly
'Cause I know in my heart, babe
Our love will never die, no

[Chorus]
You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Boy, don't you know you can't escape me?
Ooh, darling, 'cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh, darling, 'cause you'll always be my baby

Guy, the internet never forgets. Because of some change they have given you, see how you are running your mouth.

Presidential comedian? Some people cannot make heaven Sha. But why do people like holding tinubu's hand, it makes him look even more weak.

Side note, na presidential comedian dey also fight war for Ukraine so.

How much is the house?

Instead of this long process, why not look for someone with an account in a bank still collecting old notes, pay into his account and he transfers to your account?

For your information, whom ever the next president is, he will create a window for people to return the old notes.

Jack500:
This is nonsense and propaganda, stop instilling fear in people.


In Ile-ife, Osun state, people are still transacting with the old money.

You said people should deposit old money in bank, where is the new ones to replace them.

Na Ogun go kill Emefiele last last, useless ibo slave.

I just want to ask. In Benin people always say Ogun kill you. Does same apply to Yoruba states? I know he is the god of thunder but I grew up in Lagos and never heard that statement till I got to Edo state.

Don't let Edo and delta boys hear that a bank was burnt. Please. Na them start end sars. Don't go and instigate people.

My solace is that there is no perfect plan. We only project and prepare. There is no infallible plan. If Hitler can fall, then any gathering, projection, manipulation, gimmick, game plan or agenda can work against the perpetrators. Hitler is a testament that evil can persist for a while but it cannot last for long or forever. Nigeria must work because I am not japaing anywhere.

gaddafe:
This is a lie. I can confirm this as I also run a POS business. I know it has happened in some places where one or two persons possess multiple ATM but this is not how POS get their cash. Stop spreading lies. POS get their money from the black market. Infact many POS are currently out of business as we speak. In most areas where you used to have 7 or 12 POS operators you now find out only one or two are operating and in some instances none. How many POS operators you think have that time to start using multiple ATM to queue in the bank? You think that is the only business most operates? When you buy 100k for 15k , how do you expect them to break even? I pray the Edo State task force is effective so you guys will understand what hardship is all about.

Some Banks have one of their security men stand by the ATM to make sure you don't use more than one ATM card. A friend had to go to the ATM with her son for her to be able to withdraw 40k, 20k each.

Have you raised tax force to checkmate filling stations selling fuel at N500? We never ready for this country.

Goodlady:
Nice.
But the shops may soon be out of cash cos most payments are now done via electronic transfers.

There is no country in the world without cash in circulation, no matter how few the cash might be, not even China and Sweden.

4) Buying stuff from a shop with pos and asking for cash back. eg Buy stuff of 5k, they withdraw 8k from your account and give you 3k cash. I am doing this for my regular customers.

factcheckmmm:
The stress of going to CBN at Abuja will make you think twice, or do you to waybill your money to someone in Abuja to exchange it for you.

What if they start asking questions on how you got the money.

Remember police are not actually your friend especially when money is involved

There is one CBN in every state

faceland:
Taxation on all e-transactions (that has increased due to the new policy restricting how much cash we can withdraw).

Please governor, share the stolen old currencies you haven't yet changed.

Is spending money really hard? All I will do is go to a big car dealer, buy 20 cars, look for another location, move the cars there and start selling them with profit. Or buy large parcels of land in different locations. All in cash.

See as people hate this guy. Make una take am easy. Even if this guy sing hit song, Nigerians no go let the song hit, they go use their hatred take bury him star. Blackface maybe you should focus on song writing and leave studio for them. This one wey elders and small children dey thief your song up and down.

Thanks for this.

We are already hoarding and selling the new notes. I never heard about the loss on MoMo. Really surprised Kenya is already cashless.

Lives lost to get the new notes in India!!!!!!! That's too much. Seems them were panicking because of the 2 months notice. The loss of jobs is my biggest fear. POS operators are the first to be hit now, other jobs will follow.

First off, the main purpose of this change in naira notes is to go cashless. The government with the help of the media is just forcing hoarding of cash, especially by politians, down our throats because they know the masses hate Nigerian politicians. Same way Shaibu was saying land use charge in Edo is only for the rich in GRA. It will all trickle down to the masses.

The issue is not even the date. Be it 31st January or June 30th, we are going cashless. They might be using it as a propaganda against some politicians but it's not really about them. It's about technological advancement and record breaking profits for the banks. Please calculate N50 transfer charge by 50 million people a day. That's N2.5billion a day.

This would follow mass layoff of bank staff. In the Zenith bank I use frequently, there are four tellers downstairs and four tellers in the bulk room, making a total of 8 tellers for cash and cheques. What would then be the need for a bulk room when there is no bulk cash? What about the millions of jobs created by POS terminals? Those will all shut down too.

The major advantage I can see in this whole issue is the lack of cash to pay ransom to kidnappers. As their bank details will expose them. But what if they all start insisting on being paid in dollars?

Every policy has it's advantages and disadvantages. We will never be ready for technological advancement, sometimes we just have to push ourselves into it and see how it pans out.

Please share your views.

Hoe

In this life, know that there is nothing like christians and moslems, shittes and sunnis, catholics and protestants, Yorubas and Igbos, blacks and whites. There is only the RICH/POWERFUL and the POOR/MIDDLE CLASS.

Know this and know peace.

After queueing up for your money, go next door and queue up for fuel.

What we don't see yet is the job loss waiting to hit the banking sector as we go cashless. What would be the need for bulk rooms in the bank when there is no bulk cash to pay? This is why all bank MDs and directors are in full support. They will receive N50 for every amount you receive and between N25 to N55 for every amount you send. More money, less salaries.

They are just using our hate for politicians against us and spreading news of policitians hoarding cash. This might be true, but the main purpose of this exercise is to go cashless.

My heart goes out especially to all bankers, begin to work on plan B now.

I am just racking my brain on how to tap into the tech hub.

Godwin4444:
how will pos get new notes to run business when banks are still paying old notes

By now you suppose understand that our govt tries to frustrate it's citizens with all their policies. We have to run around and look for alternatives to cushion the effect of our oppressions aka Nigerian politicians. I believe the only option now is mobile, ATM and pos transfer. I don't think cash app, Venmo and paypal works in Nigeria but there will be others. The annoying thing for me is that you will be debited N50 stamp duty for every money you receive and N4 for every alert. Then when you send money, you will be debited between N26 to N54 for transfer fees and N4 to N8 for alert. This might look small but multiple that by at least 50 million people per day.

Godwin4444:
the policy is good but d most annoying part is that they said old notes will not b accepted from next week henceforth n till this moment bank is still giving out old notes on d counter


Tell me how do we address that?

Today is Thursday n bank is still giving out old notes n officially tomorrow is Friday which marks the official end of d week

So how do these people expect us to cope


Imagine wanting to buy car parts from all those illiterates dealers n they say they don’t want old note m bank is still paying old note

N u need over 500k….note atm can only give u 20k per day

How do u do it?

Transfer

If you can't transfer, give your ATM to pos, they send it to their account
