It's been tough, but we are surviving.
More businesses are embracing electronic transaction.
Fintech platforms like Opay are cashing out.

We are coping down here.
It's a sacrifice to stop a man who stole Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) and Ministry of Power, Housing and Works, dry through his boys, Fowler and Fashola. The cash stockpiled to buy election must become useless. Kwankwaso just said.

God bless Opay and Palmpay for quick alerts on outgoing transactions.

God bless Unity bank, Gtb Bank, jaiz bank, Fidelity bank, for always successful transactions via Pos.

Finally God bless my beautiful people of Kebbi and sokoto, for accepting transfers for even purchases as low as 300 naira

I've not held more than 3k cash at a go since these Naira got redesigned.

I've not felt any pain all through
You Sabi. Fidelity bank all the way. POS payment no dey take more than five seconds.
Re: The Reality Of Scarcity Of Naira Notes: How Are You Coping? by VenExchangee: 9:03pm On Feb 20, 2023
Palmpay and opay for all deal.
Re: The Reality Of Scarcity Of Naira Notes: How Are You Coping? by iLoveYouToo(m): 9:03pm On Feb 20, 2023
It’s been rough. I was able to get 10k cash last week but had to give it out, some people are really suffering and need help.

Some people just can’t survive without cash. Petty businesses are feeling it most.

Throwback:
This one has realised that Peter Obi is on the wrong side of the masses suffering, he has to blame Tinubu to save face for the charlatan candidate that knows nothing about how economic growth is conceived.

The curse and bad omen will never unleash his wickedness and visionlessness on Nigeria, like he unleashed on Anambrarians.
you are wasting your time by trying to hate the choice of the masses. Obi is coming!
Re: The Reality Of Scarcity Of Naira Notes: How Are You Coping? by twosquare(m): 9:04pm On Feb 20, 2023
Don't mind them...but I suggest people switch to fintech with free transfers...despite what is happening, traditional banks refused to remove these charges...so....more naira to their coffers....soon they will start declaring billions in profits...after milking us dry.

No wonder there are many unbanked.

Of course yes, what if they want to withdraw?
Add at least #50-#100 as charge is okay.
I always add charge for them even if they didn't tell me.

Allow those that are playing politics with this nonsense to continue...

I don't understand why one will choose to burn a whole house because of one rat...is that not crazinesshuh

You are happy and supporting this evil policy that have paralysed many small scale businesses, simply because some politicians, supposedly, are preventing some set of politicians from vote buyinghuh

So, because of vote buying, we should not live our normal lives anymorehuh The same country the masses have never benefitted true dividends of democracy...you are punishing us because of an electionhuh

If cursing truly works, the curse wey I see people send give Buhari and Emefiele today, no be small one.
It's just so annoying and tiring.
