Now tell me why vote selling won't be a lucrative business for the voters.

The politicians you want to starve have already accumulated sufficient new Naira notes for their election through the banks. That's obvious!

In reality, if there are no changes to the country's current cash situation, the public may be more susceptible to politicians during the election because the politicians already have the new Niara notes in their possession for the election.

Trust me, there won't be votes buying this time around; what you are about to witness is VOTE SELLING.

Yes! It is true that the policy may not be contentious, but the execution leaves much to be desired. Proper planning is critical to successfully implementing a policy, even within an organization, let alone an entire country with over 200 million people.

He never said so. I told you people that Emefiele doesn't have the liver to counter Supreme Court Judgment.

Redesign of Nigeria currency stand joor. Old currency is no more a legal tender in the general public. To hell with APC governors. Tinubu ma lule piii Lekan siii niiii
To start it, was it really redesigned? They just changed colour and it was a very bad print.

Meanwhile, both old and new notes are still legal tender.

Emefiele is a thief. The money he spent trying to get this new notes is bigger in value than the amount of new notes he has printed so far.

This design change exercise has been a poorly executed exercise. For a country largely dependent on cash and especially with a large chunk of the populace without bank accounts, the time frame for phasing out of the old note was arbitrarily short. The masses are bearing most of the brunt.

Meffy messed up big time.
2023 peson no open account... dy must be mad... we can't afford to be backward all the time cause of people... my grand mama 96 die with a bank account... we have to find a way to know every one naira been spend... to reduce insecurity and corruption.... the time is now.... the only thing CBN need to do now is to reduce transfer fee... who need to be carrying cash up and down... with starlink Internet will soon be everywhere and very cheap

12 reasons why you should vote APC.

1. Education improved under APC. Lecturers and students are happy.

2. Nigerians became more United under APC.

3. Power supply imporoved under APC.

4. Police brutality reduced under APC.

5. Inflation reduced under APC. The average Nigerian can afford goods and services.

6. Every tribe and religion are equally represented under APC.

7. Job opportunities increased under APC.

8. Rule of law was obeyed under APC.

9. Jagaban's APC gave us the best president ever in the person of president Buhari.

10. Jagaban's blueprint is the reason why Nigerians are currently progressing in this current government.

11. I forgot to mention security, university students were being kidnapped and released safe and sound under this APC government.

12. Last one, The APC government is the first to achieve all it's campaign promises through president Buhari.

With these few points of mine, hope you now see reasons why we need to vote wisely. You have the right to vote APC if you enjoyed all the 12 reasons mentioned above.

Cashless policy kill your family there! This is so typical- dumber and dumber when Emesiere meets Bubu! Which underdeveloped country can sustain cashless economy? Just put Atiku like you want and release our cash! Nobody will fight you. I use cash to buy most things I buy in US, UK and China, I only use cards if there's discount or if I feel it's more convenient. Why will you force me to go cashless in a country like Nigeria? My husband has been buying almost everything from foodco and ShopRite, depriving those petty traders of his patronage. Even when they accept transfer, they make loss trying to withdraw the money

What is this fool saying for God's sake. You are blaming Lp and Pdp for not reacting.
Yet you want to vote Apc that started the whole thing. Is Buhari that gave the go ahead for the policy from NNPP??. How daft can one be?

Make them try make the new ones available plenty, they should start with 200 own first, as that's easily obtained
This cashless policy is the best of all policies instituted by Buhari. This will reduce inflation boost economy. Curb corruption and institutionalize accountability.
It is unreasonable for you to want to buy goods of #50,000 and you will I'll be carrying cash about to make purchase, let alone buying goods in the upward of #500,000. It's absurd and uncivilized and doesn't move with global trend. Please let us help Buhari to attain this feat. Politicians are just playing in our intelligence, what they cannot do in oyinbo countries they go to buy goods worth millions, they do it in Nigeria. Same way they dare not break traffic rule in those countries but shamelessly with ego do that here.
National Orientation Agency and other Media Outlets should start as a matter of urgency, sensitizing Nigeria population on the need to go electronic.
The telecommunication should also widen their scope and make their network better. The CBN should also try and reduce interest rates on loans, charges on transfers and others hidden charges that will go along way to motivate the Nigerians on the need to go cashless.
Just as I earlier said, this is the best policy of Buhari, not APC because APC governor claimed it is not in APC manifesto that they will do that. The second policy he also did that is also a bomb is the unbundling of NNPC. These two are the ones I love most in all his policies.
Citizens, cashless policy doesn't allow you carrying huge amount of money about, you're expected to go electronically or use credit card. Take the message home and start sensitizing people.

Only people that have illegal money stacked in their houses will continue to have issues with this policy...we have had a smooth transition of currency but this time, criminals element where choked that is why their screaming in every media outlet. The same new note they release I won't be surprise if they find out that it was hijacked by the Criminals
Wrong.

People are stranded in Lagos this morning. Businesses are seriously affected also.

Shey big men dey carry cash Waka? huh
Na the citizens dey feel am pass, wake up jare. How much of the new currency you get?

Going cashless is good but doing it this way without even understanding if the country is ripe for it is just plain silly
