Solababa91:
Postponed or not, I don't expect the new naira note to be everywhere as was the old one, the idea of the whole currency redesign is to reduce money in circulation and push transactions online.

Raxxye:

The word is "reduce!"

Padipadi:

I don't want an extension.
I m not happy with the extension cod it ll enable those he think are stealing to steal n hide more.
The masses only suffered during the panic of the previous week, the looters got 10 extra days to hide exchange their hidden old notes.
The common man has nothing more to lose.

Teejay13:
That was so thoughtful of them. Atleast by then the new note must have been circulated.

Kaiser20:

We can't be mate, from your comment I predict that you are still in your early 30s , that's Ok.
The young shall grow in knowledge and wisdom if you are willing.

ZombieTERROR:


It's chaos in the banks... many still have old cash in Rural areas..

Politicians can't do MUCH with this window

EmekaBlue:
I for like that settings. Maybe man can loot bank also

The thieves ontop if u have idea of the amount they are looting ehn. E go shock u

dominique:
I hope it's true o! I'm still trying to see the sense in plunging millions of people into losses because you don't want politicians to bribe voters and you want to impose silly cashless policy. When you don't want to be unfortunate.

Incrediblekutty:
Why not the whole of February??... What's the hurry??

FalseProphet1:
For those that usually say my prophecy doesn't come to pass, can you now see that this one has come to pass. I Prophesy that the date would be shifted beyond 31st January, and it has happened. I hope I'm now vindicated that I'm not a fake Prophet.

This is the prophecy below.

IMASTEX:

Why shouldn't they? If banks that were supposed to be the main means through which the old notes should be faced out were still paying with the same old notes as at last week?

bennyflipy:
Good news.

God bless Nigeria and the Jagaban of Africa our incoming president.

Padipadi:
Buhari's has no ball. Common sense suppose tell him he's to give 6 months notice ahead for the new notes to be in full circulation. If he did the policy in order to curb politicians, then it has failed with the extension.
I just don't like a man that pretends to be good but is very bad!
At the end, people ll hate APC more cos the common man has nothing more to go and change in the bank.
The looters has 10 more days to loot/exchange old notes. So...I disagree with the president on this extension. If I m in his shoes, I would v implemented this policy since early last year and give 6 months maximum notice with eagles eyes to watch who's exchanging huge cash. I go catch lots of people and ask where they saw huge cash to exchange.

Tenshades:


Not yet vindicated.

Deadline extension is a very common thing in Nigeria.

Predict 100,000 odds to enter to prove you are a real prophet.

🤨🤨🤨

You don't need to be a seer to know
that there must be some sort of extension,
because the problem being experienced
by citizens is as a direct incompetence
of the CBN Governor, who haa bitten
more than he can chew❗️❗️

RichDad1:
Emefiele is spineless after all. 😂😂😂
He dare not cross path with a moving train like the Jagaban. ♾♾♾


Wailers and the mobs you’re free to rant 🤡🤡🤡🤡

yemi1504:


Still doesn't say the banks won't do the same as before. They are sabotaging the CBN's efforts.
