I’m glad common sense finally prevailed. In addition, CBN should immediately ban banks from issuing the old notes. Only the new notes should be issued from all ATM machines and across the counter from Monday. Any bank still issuing the old notes should be heavily sanctioned.

babaijebue:
We warned Emefiele but he wouldn't listen.
Jagaban is coming

Backpedal:

The same CBN gov that still controls my ney supply is who Tinubu wants to face off with ?

I'm sorry for him

PNomsule:
Do not compel a population of over 200million people to deposit their Old cash within a short notice. It will most definitely end in chaos. Na wa for Bubu reasoning fa

Parachoko:
If the banks do not give the new notes over the counter, there will need to still be an extension then

idrismodel:
Emefiele have dined with and have mastered how to deal with Nigeria politicians.

At least he has shifted ground a bit.

There will no longer be a valid reason to put all the blame on CBN with this 10 days extension.

Cashless policy is the way forward

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.

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.

Eriokanmi:
Good news. This fair enough for the masses and still a punishment to our politicians. The CBN knows what it's doing. They didn't want to be rigid cos I know for sure, what's underground of one politician's homes can't be exhausted in the 2 wks extension given. As a matter of fact, it could take a up to month for a branch to finish counting what some have in thejr homes. This is a good move

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

BestMan001:

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.
You maybe one but don't know it.
I followed one of your 'prophesies' and it came true.....lol

nedu666:
Cbn make news notes available its not by extension. Also penalize any bank that issues old note within this period

tabaralph:


My dear wake up, Tinubu that you are referring to doesn’t have one single naira of old notes in his ware, why do you think new notes are scarce?, as new notes dey come out na so Tinubu and co dey hijack am, there won’t be new notes until after the election…truth is bitter tho

FuckDModz:


As expected.

Nigerians are last-minute people.

Any deadline not extended will result in irreparable losses.

It's quite unfortunate. Some people even take pride in this shameful behaviour.

IMASTEX:

What made you feel the same politicians with strong connect in the banking industry & government haven't already loaded their warehouses with the new notes as usual. The policy will only affect regular individuals.
