We Asked For The Old Naira Notes. Why Are We Refusing It Now? by Draslo(m): 10:51am On Mar 10, 2023
I've always said that Nigerians are the problems of Nigeria not necessarily its elected leaders. The level of corruption has eaten so deep it is sickening. The fact that nobody regulates pricing means that were in a black hole of inflation where the price of commodities and services increases indefinitely. Since I've been born, the price of bread, eggs, meat and fish, transport, etc dey go up and never comes down. We're in a perpetual state of neverending inflation.

The past month has brought severe hardship on Nigerians because a simple policy called cash swap was carried out as cash seizure just to target presidential candidates who are proudly billionaires even though all three are but one no dey give shishi (even though he would have bought PDP party ticket for 100 million from his personal stash if given the opportunity). I don't need to explain the details because we all experienced it. Fast forward to March, the supreme court and the central bank have decided to ease the suffering by making the old notes legal tender till December this year. Banks have even begun dispensing old notes over the counter and in ATMs. Now, regular Nigerians who have been clamouring for the old notes to be returned into circulation are the very ones rejecting it despite the court order.

My conclusion, na we dey do ourselves. Whether Tinubu or PO or Atiku is our president, we will still find ways to make lives hard for one another and then face whoever is in Aso Rock and begin to curse them for our individual hardships.

Once beaten twice shy. Nigerians have come to terms with Buhari's character and body language.

So long as Buahi has not made any statement bordering the SC ruling on old naira nites either by himself I proxy (Emefiele) he has technically rejected the ruling as usual.

Hence, nobody wants to suffer it again.

Asiwaju should release a statement, encouraging people to make use of the old notes because it seems Buhari is already tired of his job

It will get worse if the stolen mandate of the People is not restored.
Wickedness and hate will befall this Country in an unprecedented level, in all dimensions.

People are indeed suffering from this policy and have moved on with new note and digital transactions. It is not ideal, but we have survived.

Those with legit cash are to submit to CBN, for the equivalent value to be transferred to their personal accounts.
Those who have acquired theirs through fraudulent means are afraid of accountability.

Old notes are bye gone. It is harsh, but that's the truth.

We are in the process of changing how we do transactions.

In the long run,there will be winners and losers.

Hard working Nigerians will smile again.
