I've been an INEC ad-hoc staff in previous elections and to some extent cash is inevitable. In most cases the monies are given for transportation and feeding. Even if you can pay for food with transfer, will you pay for transport with transfer too. INEC doesn't pay election renumeration with cash. It's only the stipends needed for staffs to navigate to RAC and for their feeding during the elections. Also cash is needed for RAC maintenance. In as much as cashless policy is good, there are many areas that still depends on cash.

Jamesbiodun:
Funny, where is the money allocated to inec

otokx:
Is this true? Why would INEC want to embark on cash payments?

ThierryJay:


Are you being deliberately ignorant for someone whose comments are mostly logical?

Where in the world, in a country where up to 80% of transaction volume is conducted within the informal sector, is a cashless policy implemented effectively in less than 3 months?

Excellent Project Managers factor in limitations due to realities on ground rather than mere rational wishes in determining project timelines.

Have you considered the incessant network glitches, unbanked rural populace, inadequate network infrastructure and coverage, literacy levels needed for online transactions? Or these are unimportant?

It beggars belief that you are asking what INEC needs cash for when majority of the areas where voting takes place are in rural grassroots areas.

And you people will be abusing Buhari!

rottennaija:


Senseless people. You don't know they still have to withdraw the money from financial institutions?

I don't know what Emefiele stands to gain from all these confusion that he has unleashed on the Nigerian social, economic and political space like this.

Are you an INEC staffer? Stop quoting me if you are not because e-channels can do almost everything cash transactions do.

The last time I checked, NYSC doesn't pay corpers using cash. Besides, CBN has branches in all the 36 states and the FCT. They kicked off Cash Swap program that targets unbanked Nigerians in rural communities. Those corps members should access cash through that channel, if they really need cash.

Unless the CBN drops this policy, everyone must embrace it. Cashless payments have more benefits than carrying cash about. Our problem is that we are obsessed with cash payments, and we are struggling to come to terms with the new normal.

Na Tilumbum be their problem

Little did they know Jagaban is sorted for life

Typical Zombidiots ignorance, after neglecting democracy and Civic responsibility for years, shouting Biafra or playing football on the highway

*Since 1999 NURTW have been moving sensitive and non sensitive materials accross the 774 LGA , they just knew few days to election 22 years later

*CBN stores Sensitive INEC materials for all Region

*INEC pays AdHoc staffs stipends in cash for election day

*ASUU are returning officers
.

You have a major comprehension issue.

Read what you quoted again.

PrinceOfLagos:
What a country

APC has succeded in running this country aground

Will election still hold like this ?

Tflex01:


This Naira redesign and cashless policy imbroglio has really exposed the mental and literacy level of Obi supporters.

SmartPolician:
What does INEC need cash for? What kind of logistics payment that runs in millions that INEC cannot pay using e-channels? Nigerians should just end all this obsession with cash!

Mahmood should not fail and blame it on cash (CBN). If anyone should be complaining about cash, it should be village people, bus drivers and market women who handle small amounts of cash, not men like INEC chairmen who control millions of naira.

everythinggirly:
I no fully understand, what do they need cash for?

maasoap:
Haba! What do they need cash for? According to to Buhari, Emefiele and Zombiedients, we want to curb votes buying.
