First and foremost, I don't use #5, I barely use cash transaction, that is to say, I barely get in touch with cash on my daily transaction, from fuel stations to saloon, everything I do, I barely touch cash, the only reason I touch cash is because I'm traveling and don't want to get stranded in a village or town where cash is very much the means of transaction.

As for your question, it doesn't correlate with the post, #5 infact new #5 notes are still in circulation, from Kaduna to Bauchi to Yobe to Sokoto, these denominations are still in circulation, that's what is relevant to the post, create your own post and I will reply you accordingly.

Long story short, as a common man what can 5 naira buy in your neighborhood? Abi you be senator pikin?

Nigerians and using thèîr my0p!c view on subject matters as a national outlook is the reason why you see some comments like the ones above.
When you travel across Nigeria, try to relate with the average common man, buy things from common stores that the everyday Nigerians buy from in the course of those travels, that's when you can really relate with the country.
#5 notes are well in use, common provision stores give out #5 notes as change to their customers till today.

As a common man what can 5 naira buy for you in your neighborhood?

Tinubu Just cleared a debt of 2 billion dollars just to ask for 20 billion dollars just days later

The president should call this dumb governor to order, the local government autonomy is one of the legacy Tinubu will leave behind, no governor should be able to remove an elected local government chairman.

And I agree, the shooting at the car was senseless didn't I mention that.

But everything else, the father caused the situation

Everything else is immaterial, don't shoot in a crowded place, especially because of a traffic offence, I have siblings in that axis, that bullet could have met anybody in that area.

Mydd44 is making such a horrible attempt to justify the killing of a teenager by the Nigerian police force, the police was not supposed to shoot in that crowded space.

Mynd44:
When you commit a crime and you are chased by authorities in an attempt to arrest/stop you from being a further threat to other motorists, the fault from whatever happens is yours not the authorities chasing you.

You don't seem to understand the dangers of driving against traffic until someone close to you is knocked down by one of them. How are you even sure the clown on one way isn't a terrorist, armed robber or drunk driving?

Now the method of attempting to shot down the tires was very wrong as you can miss or risk the car turning over and hitting others so other law enforcement should be engaged to block the road further up front and arrest the culprit.

Perhaps you miss that the driver in a bid to get away rammed 2 or 3 place vehicles, if you were an officer there will you believe the driver to be harmless person trying to get home or someone with criminal intent.

There is a reason police authorities don't always prosecute officers and this is one.

You have no point, opening fire in a crowded place is a No No! Heck the bullet could have hit anybody in that crowd, are there no rule of engagement in the Nigerian police force? You simply can't shoot in a crowded place, any other argument is immaterial.

Hmm attached by force.. Okun and Kwara are not YORUBAS, they are Kwara and. Okun tribes, period!

There is no tribe called Kwara just like there's no tribe called Abia.

It's still 75k here in Abuja.
When will APC stop lying to the Nigerian public.

Rice was selling for less than ₦8,000 during Jonathan’s administration, yet today after mismanaging the economy the APC wants Nigerians to roll out the drums and celebrate the same rice now selling for over ₦70,000

When PDP was elected in 1999, was the price of rice 8000 then?

These governors should read the body language of the president.

We all know he's not going to jail

😔

How many cars does the king needs to run his office.

The National Judicial Council has slammed a one-year suspension without pay on three serving judicial officers, including a Justice of the Court of Appeal, for various acts of judicial misconduct.

The disciplinary actions were among several key resolutions reached at the Council’s 108th meeting held on April 29 and 30, 2025, under the chairmanship of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun.

In a statement released Wednesday night by the NJC’s Deputy Director of Information, Kemi Ogedengbe, the Council said Justice Jane E. Inyang of the Court of Appeal, Uyo Division, was found guilty of breaching Rule 3 (5) of the Revised Code of Conduct for Judicial Officers.

The statement said, “Justice Jane E. Inyang was found to have abused his office by issuing inappropriate Ex parte Orders for the sale ofUdeme Esset’s petrol station and other businesses at the interlocutory stage of the case.

“The act of judicial misconduct occurred while His Lordship presided over Suit No. FHC/UY/CS/46/2023, at the Federal High Court, Uyo Judicial Division, before his elevation to Court of Appeal.”

Similarly, Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court, Abuja Division, was also suspended for one year without pay. In addition, he was placed on the Council’s Watch List and barred from elevation for five years.

“The complaints against Hon. Justice Ekwo arose from Charge No. FHC/ABJ/CR/184/2021, wherein His Lordship delivered a ruling in a pending application without hearing the parties,” the statement said.

“His Lordship ignored an application to set aside the proceedings of the Court conducted in the absence of the parties. Subsequently, His Lordship proceeded to deliver a ruling dismissing the charge against the Defendants. Consequently, His Lordship was found to have violated Rule 3.1 and 3.3 of the 2016 Revised Code of Conduct for Judicial Officers of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” it added.

Justice Aminu Baffa Aliyu of the Federal High Court, Zamfara Division, was also suspended for one year without pay for judicial misconduct.

They keep stealing from the poor.

What's this one saying?

I'm not sure democracy is only about politicians because they are all thieves, what about the citizens? A country that removed subsidy from everything and strip the citizens naked but only take care of politicians? Nigeria is fast becoming a failed state, the very best of us are leaving the country because there seem to be zero hope, this is also evident by the growing voter's apathy in Nigeria, in the nearest future it will be only the politicians and their families voting, I don't know why you guys are so comfortable and fixated with the status quo when other countries are lifting their citizens out of poverty daily while we grow poorer and poorer daily.

Nigeria be like season film, one day you're the VIce presidential candidate of PDP and a day later you're in the APC, all I wanna say is that they don't really care about us!!

This is probably a joke.
