Still 100 Naira to withdraw ten thousand (10k) , I don't know why some people are wailing about this Naira redesign.

I'm currently in the most rural part of Kebbi state and every store accept transfer, I paid for a loaf kainuwa bread which is 350 naira with transfer this morning, using my Opay app.

Nigerians wailing about this are those that want to make it hard for themselves.

I haven't held more than 3k cash since this whole design issue, my card and transfer, accepted, kebbi and sokoto state.

So I wonder why those in the so called educated area's are finding it difficult to adjust.

Somethings are not that simple.

There are so many people who earn a living by hawking in traffic. Many of these group of people may have families as well. How do they earn a living without cash?

Many are arguing that the news of currency redesign had been out since October 26th, 2022. That may be correct, but when did the new notes came into circulation? Dec. 15th, 2022. Then the banks continued to issue the old notes because many of them claimed they didn't have the new notes.

The truth is that it is bad to make your good intention or did look bad. The move would have been great to cut inflation and reduce vote buying, but voters even need to survive until the election days.

WelcomeToBiafra:


Nigerians are not One but the same Nigerians supporting one Nigeria to continuing their corrupt business in the zoo shit-hold called Nigeria.


Let me tell you what you have never considered before,

If you divide Nigeria, Biafra and Oduduwa parts will be the most terrifying side to live in.

I know emotions will never allow you to believe that.

Just like we told people when Lybians were fighting Gaddafi's government that after removing him problem will start.

How good and peaceful is Lybia now, they felt Gaddafi was their Problem.

Thank God we have been proving right.

10%

Although I'm making a lot of money this time due to the nature of my business, POS operators were queuing to get cash from me and I'm charging them 5% but I'll not be selfish, this policy is bad as insane.

What is the nature of your business if you don't mind

This simply showed the true nature of most Nigerians,reason why the country is still stinking in corruption. Everyone wants to rip off once given slightest opportunity. The people in the bank turned it into business,selling to POS, while POS resells too at a high margin. Banks refuse to load money, just to run deals with them, reason why the circulation of the new currency is causing serious hardship. Nigerians are the real cause of their own problem. This is a good policy,but the implementation was commercialised at the expense of the suffering masses. It will stabilise with time, when the transactional money we need is properly circulated. It curbs money laundry even,only if the banking system and government are sincere with its implementation and gains. The pros outweighs the cons,but the bank šŸ¦should let the people have their basic transactional money. Wicked & greedy Banks and personnels! Corrupt Govt
Great Nation
Good People
Greedy Class
Bad Leaders

#200 for every 1k.... Very wicked set of people...This thing has really made me to realize that an average nigerian is anti-nigerian............. Waiting to get an upper hand so that he/she can rip off the sweat of his fellow country man.......It clearly shows that our politicians aren't our problem only,na we-we dey do ourselves.
God bless u.Nigeria problem has Nthg to do with leaders.Thatā€™s why even Obi canā€™t fix Nigeria.Dora akunyili saw it when she brought out a program of rebranding Nigeria.The mindset of an average Nigerian is the problem.I live abroad now and I have never seen any compound with more than 2 cars.In Nigeria u see a compound with 20 cars.The quest to amass wealth is the problem we have.

No one supports APC, they only deserve fire
My brother, its not the way you see it. Most people use commercial transport up to or more than 6 times a day. To work, 3 times,..back from work, 3 times. You cant tell a danfo man to accept your cashless means of payment. No, you cant. He wont even listen to you. The same applies to the petty traders selling fruit and what have you. Its not as easy as it seems. Most of them dont even have bank accounts.

Plus, Technologically, we are not there yet. Recently, I sent some money to someone I engaged to do a job for me. He got to receive it after 24 hours. You can imagine what would have happened if this was between me and someone who is just a roadside trader.

As good as this development may look, it can not be achieved using force or within a short period.

Nigeria has to upgrade.
Cash only when necessary.
Most business transactions are currently being done through transfers.
Therefore,stop wailing and key in
