Some Civil Society organizations and residents of Benin city have blocked the entrance gate to the Central Bank of Nigeria as a reaction to the continued none availability of Naira notes and naira swap policy.

The Protesters are demanding that the central bank of Nigeria discontinue with policy and make the naira notes available for the masses.

But the central bank authority say more naira notes will be made available in the coming days as the policy is not targeted at bringing hardship and pains to the people of the country but to improve on the economy.

In the same vein, hundreds of residents of Ondo State have staged a peaceful protest along Ore-Benin expressway to register their displeasure over scarcity of naira notes and fuel ravaging the nation.

The protesters blocked the road there by causing gridlock.

The protest is coming despite stern warning from the police authorities in the State. Many travellers plying the route were stranded for several hours.

One of the protesters, Adebayo Adeyemi said the recent hardship ravaging the country is quite alarming.

“We are protesting to send a message to the government, that we the masses are suffering”.

Why Are The Naira Notes Now Scarce? (Video)

Many Nigerians have complained about the difficulty of getting the naira notes, as POS operators take advantage of the situation to inflate their charges on withdrawals by more than 1000% in several instances.

But why are the naira notes hard to get now? Readers should take note of the fact that a great part of the old notes have been mopped up by the CBN, which leaves only a few old notes and the new notes as options. The video looks into the major means by which the distribution of the new notes is being sabotaged.

Somebody said that Endsars part 2 is loading. That statement is gradually being confirmed. Let the cash be made available. They cannot justify this madness. Any bank that is found wanting should be sanctioned.
