You no go kill person with laugh

BlueRayDick:
Make I just share small heads-up on how to get cash(New notes) from banks in this tough times:

1. Try and locate any of the new commercial banks/islamic banks closest to you. (When I mean new banks, I mean banks like parallex, Jaiz bank, Globus, Premium Trust bank, Lotus bank, etc)

2. Open an instant personal account with them. Some of them have DSA's who would guide you through opening an account via their mobile apps which u will download from your app store ; while others have agents outside the bank handing account opening forms to customers.

3. When u are done with opening the accounts, you can trasfer cash from any of your bank accounts to the new account you just opened and u will be able to withdraw at least 10k over the counter immediately( Their withdrawal limits vary depending on the amount of cash they have at hand and the number if customers waiting to withdraw cash)

4. After successfully withdrawing over the counter, u can still withdraw cash off their ATM's outside. (They dedicate at least one or two ATM machine to solely their customers for withdrawal)

NB: It's advisable u run this package early in the morning before other people already frustrated by their banks will join the queue to scatter things .

This one na for Lagos people.

On my way to work tomorrow morning, I'll snap the crowd at premium trust bank and post here.

This your strategy may work for those who have endless hours to go and queue there.

You should also note that we have 1 Globus bank, 1 Premium trust bank and 1 titan trust bank in the whole of PH.

If these banks have one single branch in a place like PH, how many do you think they will have in Ekiti or Abakaliki

izzou:
[color=royalblue]I hear these POS people buy the notes too

You know...The way you take your dollar to Alhaji to buy, and Alhaji sells it to someone else.

SMH[/color]

Yes it's true. One of them told my wife she bought 40k with 4k from market women.

She now sold the 40k with 8k. She said people were even rushing it.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]3k for 10k?

E be like say you drive SUV go the POS shop. [/color]

I hear it from people and on radio

I have not been to any POS shop since this madness started

Emaprince:
This is the problem. I still have small old notes. I'm not even worried one bit. And I believe I will spend it. Lol.

People even know that banks are not collecting it, yet no one send.

Same thing here in PH. No one is rejecting anything. Nobody send Emefiele papa

izzou:
[color=royalblue]What is the exchange rate of the Naira to the Naira today?

I will have to settle for POS[/color]

They are now collecting N2,500 to N3,000 here for every 10k.

God knows I can't pay it. Lai lai

afrodoc2:
I wasn't going to explain to him. I knew a Bible-believing Christian would explain to him.

Spy deserves koboko for asking people to deposit money they have no means of collecting when they need it.

Spy360:
You were given 31st January to deposit all old notes, you didn't. An extension of ten days was given, you didn't. Even if you were given till thy kingdom come, you still won't.

I know I am being insensitive as there are many who are just victims of this whole thing.

The real blame goes to the APC governors and Buhari that gave the extension of the deadline. And also the Supreme Court for medling with economic policies that doesn't concern them.

Irrespective of whether you support the policy or not, the key point here is just comply. If it fails then we can now hold the appropriate quarters responsible. As it stands now, what we will be hearing is accusations and counter accusations.

Comply and transact with what? Hope you know the main reason people are not complying is because once you deposit the old note, otilo.

You will have to buy it from POS operatives at black market rate the day you need money

And guess what, they will still give you old notes.

iamoyindamola:
Tell madam to bring coins for the boys we will manage it

Did you see how big the sack of 2000 naira was in the video you shared? How you wan carry 10k

afrodoc2:
What the entire ruling class has for the people is contempt. Arifin in Yoruba, or "see finish" in Pidgin. I am actually impressed by the audacity of it all. This issue is something the government in most other countries would never try, for fear of being toppled.

These ones don't regard us at all. In Nigeria of today, anything that will make you need cash of like 20k, you're on your own.

afrodoc2:
Can any Bible-believing Christian explain to me why these people are making life so difficult for Nigerians?

The situation is pathetic. I dey owe one market woman N2,300 and the vulcanizer I use 500 naira. It's not because I don't have money to pay but because I don't have cash to pay. I asked madam to bring money from work, she was only able to get N3,000 of dead 100 naira notes. What will I use N3,000 to do?

One woman narrated her ordeal in the market yesterday on radio. She bought something from an Aboki. The Aboki initially insisted on cash but after she pleaded with him, he agreed to a transfer. Unfortunately, due to the Abokis bank network issues, she couldn't send money to him. The Aboki now took her to another Aboki selling in the same market to help him receive the money. Do you know this other Aboki insisted on collecting 500 naira charge just to help receive money and transfer to the original owner. The woman had no choice.

This week has been the worst I've seen since this policy started. Old or new notes, no one even dey again.

POS agents are there collecting 2500-3000 on 10k.I work hard for my money and I can't be throwing it away.

Good morning from Benin

See as una cut Oshiomole dance short

TheGoodJoe:

Abuses won't help your course. Wike has failed woefully. Amaechi also did lots of roads. Lots. That did not stop him from investing massively in human capital development.

So those abusive points are not carrying weight.

By the way, before Wike, there was very limited traffic along Aba road. It is just because people became used to spending hours on Aba Road when Wike was doing his roundabout in Garrison, the blocking of road during election, and then the flyovers.

In Amaechi's time, it used to take me ten minutes to move from Spar to Rumuola.

Wike is just a glorified failure.

Just to be clear, that you lack wisdom and have a heart filled with hatred is a statement of fact and not me abusing you

iamoyindamola:
I hair they look that GTB
Na them start this nonsense, you are not giving new notes but you rejected old ones

You're still blaming GTB. If they had collected it, where will they take it.

The main problem is CBN. GTBs "hands" were tied

iamoyindamola:
E dan start
Old notes are now rejected

That's because banks were not collecting old notes yesterday but later in the evening, it does appear as if the CBN has told them to resume collection of old notes.

Most banks should collect the old notes today

TheGoodJoe:
Wike's infrastructure is just waste of scarce resources. People can't feed and he was sinking hundreds of billions into irrelevant flyovers.

That was a waste, not performance.

By the way, it is a huge lie for anyone to tell you that Federal policies hindered job creation.

Amaechi created jobs with Banana Tai plantation, Buguma fish farm, Songhai farm, Timariv, teachers training project, running health centres etc.

So, the Federal policies did not stop Amaechi. Wike just wasted resources. He did not perform but failed woefully.

You lack wisdom. I used to average 12mph and 10mpg when driving within town between 2018 and 2020. With what Wike has done, I now average 23mph driving within town and easily do 18-20mpg.

Those flyovers and infrastructure you say are a waste of resources has saved me a lot of money I would have spent buying fuel and also considerably reduced the time I spend on the road.

I can't even imagine how much I would have been using to buy fuel now that its between 300-400 naira per litre if I was still doing 10mpg.

The internal roads he has done and still doing everywhere has reduced wear and tear on vehicles, resulted in improved earnings for landlords since most of them can now charge more rent.

If you have ever driven on Aker or Nkpor roads before now, you won't even open your mouth to say the roads are a waste of resources. Go and see how Wike turned both roads around. How about the dualization of Tombia all the way for Ikwerre road to Stadium road. That was a brilliant masterstroke by Wike.

Wike has done tremendously well and only a blind person or a heart filled with hatred like yours won't see it.

Roland17:
Baba, na una dey ground and I go always defer to una.

With that being said, you are only talking about Port-Harcourt, one LG out of 23 LGs in River State. How about the Riverine areas? You do realize PDP has a strong hold in Rivers State. There are other PDP candidates on the ballot who will fight for the party.

Well, you're right. My post was largely based on what I'm seeing here in PH but going by the reports of violence against opposition parties in rural areas, it may be worse there.

Make we dey see sha, it's almost here

Roland17:
I am with you about Labor Party, neither PDP nor APC believe they can win Rivers State. PDP will get 25% from Rivers State.

Maybe but I'll be very surprised

Roland17:
The ground troops understand what is going on in Rivers State. They know this is a different situation for them in Rivers. While Atiku may not be visiting Rivers in person, he is definitely working with leaders of PDP's strong hold in Rivers State. PDP is not going to disappear just like that after decades of building strong structures because of Wike.

Rivers is fluid at this time but it is Obi's to lose.

Baba you don't know what is going on. If you openly paste a campaign poster of Atiku, you may not make it out alive. These same people who will attack you are the ones you say understand what is going on.

As I type this, there is not a single poster of Atiku whether small or big I have seen anywhere in portharcourt.

Maybe Skimpledawg and Timbros can come in and tell us if they've have seen any.

Atikus campaign is completely dead here. If he gets 20% of votes, I will be very surprised.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Atiku has people working for him in Rivers

He will comfortably do 30% in Rivers.

Wike cannot openly sell BAT, so he goes on Twitter talking about using 200,000 aides and all that.

PDP may not win Rivers, but dem no go lose entirely[/color]

Which people? Lee Maeba and those expired politicians wey no get any level. Do you know that not a single one of them is contesting for any position? That is how useless they are. You are banking on people that cannot even conduct a campaign rally to deliver 30% of votes for Atiku.

raumdeuter:
Hmm Rivers is the largest voting population in the South behind Lagos (iirc)

PDP throwing in the towel there is not a good thing for them. Who are the politicians on ground that will mobilize for them? Is there any PDP politician on ground in Rivers pushing for Atiku?

Anyway, Good thing for Tinubu, Any state that Atiku fails to win in the South is a positive for APC

Buhari didnt win Rivers but he won Kano, Lagos Kaduna Katsina some of them with landlide >> 60%. which of these is Atiku sure of 50% in? To throw in the towel on Rivers something sinister is going on

Seems Atiku has something else he is backing on, Maybe another INEC or this time BVAS server

That Atiku is so calculated and to quiet that is making me uneasy

Na so e calculate and has been losing elections since. He will lose this one again. I think you might be overestimating him

Roland17:
Last year, I said I was happy with how Atiku was handling Wike/ Rivers by ignoring him. Wike is an attention whor.e and when you starve people like that of the attention, they become upset and erratic.

As it stands, Atiku has evaluated his/ PDP's chances in Rivers and I think he is okay if he doesn't pull the most vote in Rivers State. Consequently, it makes no sense going to Rivers and it has nothing to do with Wike because it is now obvious that Wike himself cannot guarantee any single party bloc votes from Rivers State.

Rivers State is traditionally a PDP State with strongholds in certain areas irrespective of Wike. They have established structures that go deep into the ward levels in those areas. Atiku will utilize these structures to gather as much as he can without expecting to win Rivers State. I think PDP can gather 40% of Rivers State without winning it. Asiwaju will also benefit immensely from this fluid state of Rivers State but I don't know about 25%.

Lmao

Labour Party will get the most votes

Followed by APC

If PDP even gets 20% of the presidential election, they have exceeded expectations

Spy360:
Where were they in Nigeria politics that they are now denying knowing PO? Imagine them saying LP are after money and then join APC. Which party dey share money? It's either they are just moles or plain stupid.

Expect these kinds of news. People will come out and say different kinds of things.

https://punchng.com/northern-apc-govs-wont-deliver-for-tinubu-ex-nhis-boss/

All these things are just to attract some attention

No surprises really. If Obi should lose the election, expect more of this

raumdeuter:
Roland17 itsrm

PDP cancels rally in Rivers

https://www.nairaland.com/7567479/pdp-cancels-presidential-rally-rivers

So what will happen in Rivers, will they mobilize PDP agents, who will do the mobilization or is Atiku conceding Rivers state to Obi

Hopefully Tinubu gets 25%

Atiku is conceding Rivers state. I saw Reno do an analysis of states he believes they will win and he didn't include Rivers state. You know there was one time Atiku loyalists were saying Buhari didn't win Rivers state but still became president. They have always believed that Rivers state is dispensable.

Tinubu will definitely get more than 25% in Rivers state. Maybe even close to 40% than 30. I hear that Wike has promised 1m to any polling unit/ward that delivers Tinubu

Playing the religious and tribal card again.

My first thought when I saw it was not again. It's really tiring at this point.
