Amen to that prayer. The devil will not rule over us.

Which one be gbem

Me sef no understand.

falcon01:
The news isn't focused on them anymore but everything is still the way it is. Just because you don't see reports doesn't mean its not happening.

That is not true.

I actually wanted to ask this same question. It is clear government knows those behind insecurity in the country.

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.

Emefiele is a product of APC. Blame the bigger body before the small one.

Sometimes learn to apply wisdom. It will do you real good. You borrowed money to an interview and that shows you were highly determined to better your life. Now you were heading for the interview and who knows, you might get that job which will change your life for good. You allowed the devil cut short your journey when you should have at least accepted the old naira notes that way. People are still using it so I heard from my people back home. To cut long story short, learn to avoid issues. People might say you fear a lot and acted cowardly but it will do you good. Quote this message with your account details, I am sending you 10k. Pay the person you borrowed 1k back the money. Use the remaining 9k for whatever you think is necessary. But in all, next time, please act gentlemanly. People might say you are stupid, but in it lies great wisdom.

Thank you very much sir. This your comment has a lot of sense in it. Just that those throwing insult at me failed to put themselves in my position. I have seen those who asked I send them my details but I have refused. I don't want to look like I formulated story to collect money from anybody. Thank you for this your sensible comment and I gladly accept your offer. Thank you.

successman100:
The slap and all they did to you is the new note you are looking for.
Uninformed educational illiterate.
You don't make efforts to read news.
If you are not informed, you will be deformed like this.
Your damages is more than the N200

If you can still use the old note by Monday, come back and quote this comment.

einsteine:


And who told you the money is valid?

Until Monday reaches and banks refuse to accept the old notes, that's when you will understand.

I'm just keeping quite. Something they have already stopped to collect.

Kobicove:
So you missed an opportunity to attend your job interview because of ordinary 400Naira

You are a very foolish person!

It's easy to call me names because you were not in my shoes.

Monaboo:
This are critical times.
This is not the time to be choosing money as there is scarcity of money.

Yesterday I went to Access bank to withdraw via ATM. NO cash. Went to the Banking Hall to use withdrawal slip. They said no cash.

I then told them I want to speak with the Branch Manager cos I want to withdraw all my money.

When I met her. I told her I want to withdraw all my money.

She said no cash. I then told her I needed cash badly. The she asked me how much I wanted to withdraw. I then told her 5k. Next thing she said was

"Will you manage 100...100 Naira Note of that amount. I quickly said Yes. At this point, they had refused people from entering the Banking hall. This was around 1pm oo. People were outside angry.

Madam went into her office and brought out OLD Notes of 100 Naira. She even said I should give her time to select the clean ones and give me. She counted about 50 pieces of old N100 Note and gave me.

I collected it. Went outside the bank. Saw crowd. Past them and moved.

I used the money to enter buses and buy foodstuffs yesterday.

Moral lesson
Even Bankers are giving out Old notes to people. Nobody is rejecting old money at this time. Infact old money now is like new money at this time. Anyone who rejects old money at this time will die of chronic hunger.

I come in peace.

Bro, in my area, they are not collecting old notes again.

rajiedreez:


This is the link you seek

Where is it?

Treassured:


I absolutely agree with you.

Imagine!!! And he will also claim he Is educated .

Do they still receive old notes in your area today?

Formularcr7:
Sorry , but I'm not sure you'll be given the job because you sounds unintelligent . You should be the one to tell the conductor that our money is still valid for now, not the other way round

I just came online now to see this made front page.

Now tell me, is the old note still accepted in your area as of today? In my area, no body is receiving it again.

adecz:


Better go and appease your
Village people ...

I have heard you

Zulum500:


Oga you too like argument.. the old notes are legally tendered 😎

May be in your area.

blaquebelle:
Poverty just decided to hold you. Sorry. It will get better.

It's well bro. Once I pick a job, things go begin take shape

Spanishmilf:
you are not smart
Supreme court alread extend the deadline
Are you not social?

Bro, even this evening. I met a banker who confirmed that they no longer receive the old notes. You forget say Buhari has a penchant for disrespecting court order?

Tetrahedron:
Me voting against emilokan

Lol

tonymyke4life:
U definitely do not deserve the job. Whenever you are going for an important appointment like interview, ur going is more important than coming back. You Shud have collected the money first, go for your interview then when coming back you can decide to fight whosoever u meet on the street. You were you own problem and you ended up shooting yourself on the leg. You were given the new #500. At least that would have brought you home comfortably, and you can sort yourself out later when you get to your area. As a man, skipping just a meal won't kill u. You were just not disciplined enough to be focused on attending the interview and avoiding distractions. The devil works in mysterious ways buh u decided to open the door to perform his wonders in your life. Better luck next time.

Thank you for the ending part.

I didn't imagine things going that way.

Richy4:
That would have been avoided assuming the bus drivers have Point Of Sales machine POS.. U can't have a cashless society without that....

With that, u have the choice to pay with cash or your debit/ credit card.. Since u are sceptical about the old naira note, All u do is tap in your 4digits..... It's that simple.. the world is a beautiful place with good administration and enlightenment..

POS? Is it not when you have money in your account. I said I begged to borrow the 1k from a neighbour

madapcmod:
Very funny.

You lost everything

You lost the job

You collect beating

You still no collect the new 200 notes

You got torn shirt and trousers plus bruises

Wisdom is profitable to direct

Quite sad. What applicants are going through in the country.

Omoyoruba101:

The guy is not a serious candidate...

How? I was only asking new notes be given to me

Show me any link to any official release that the deadline is no longer today? Emefiele and Buhari kept mute all through.

Based on tips, I had to attend an interview today. The information was that if I am shortlisted, I will start work latest first week of March. So I was very happy and ready to do anything to attend the interview.

As an applicant without a kobo, I had to kneel down begging a neighbour before he borrowed me 1k to enable me pay my way. The transport fare to and from was to gulp N400 or more.

My in and out was just the 1k. In fact, my feeding was also inside the 1k - everything. So it was a priceless 1k that every kobo was very important.

Early in the morning, I heard people arguimg over the deadline for new naira notes. People refused to collect the old naira notes.

So I boarded a bus with the N1000 note which I paid to the conductor. My transport fare was N100. When I came down, the conductor gave me new N500 note and two old N200 notes, making it N900. I refused to collect the old N200 notes. He insisted he didnt have new naira notes to change for me. Argument ensued as I refused to collect the old notes.

Like I said, that was the only money with me. So I didnt want to take any chances of collecting old notes that I will later not be able to use. So in the midst of the argument, he wanted to move and leave, I tried to stop him by gently holding his t-shirt. I didnt know his polo shirt was that soft. Unluckily for me, the polo got torn.

That was how war was declared. The conductor and the driver descended on me. They first targeted at tearing my shirt too despite showing remorsefulness over getting his shirt torn. Not once, not twice, they kept tearing my shirt till at some point, I put a resistance. Of course that couldn't be without a fight. I won't lie, those guys dealt with me. Two agbero hands descending on one non-agbero hand. Before people could intervene, they tore my shirt and a part of my trouser, gave me serious bruises, got me so dirty and stopped me from attending the interview.

I went back home like a mad man.

A very sad day for me.

May God help and bless me with a well-paid job.

The struggle continues!!!

Another lamentation of an unemployed youth. This country na wa.

Really? You mean Potato is cheaper than Hmmmm.....Cassava..... Garri.... Ewaaaaa

UnfairLife7:
This present administration is bad sir. How many industry or individual persons are into building now? If you know how most young guys venture into crime (cyber fraud) in this present administration, you'd be so surprised and amazed.

I had a strong 2.1 degree and unemployed. My survival was solely on menial jobs (not everyone will indulge in cyber fraud) that barely comes frequent

There are millions of average Nigerians out there going through series of difficulties/hardship despite coming out top in their various disciplines.

The few lucky ones are obviously underemployed, whose take home hardly take them home

Something is fundamentally wrong in this country

The last paragraph ...#fact.

Faulty foundation.
