It Is A Criminal Act To Deface Naira – CBN Warns Nigerians by Dorischuks: 5:02pm On Jul 11, 2019 |
The Central Bank of Nigeria has warned Nigerians to restrain from defacing the Naira, describing such act as criminal and an affront on national pride. According to the apex bank, the Naira, like the National flag remains a symbol of Nigeria’s nationhood and sovereignty, hence the need to respect and preserve it. The bank disclosed this on Thursday in Osogbo, the Osun State capital during a programme tagged ” CBN Fair” with the theme : Promoting Financial and Economic Stability ” which was specifically organised to sanitise the residents on some of CBN policies and programmes. Speaking at the event, the Director, Corporate Communications Department of the bank, Mr Isaac Okorafor, who was represented by the Assistant Director in the department, Mr Samuel Okogbue said spraying of notes, squeezing and writing on it constitute grievous offences that attract penalty in the face of law. He, however, emphasised the need to develop the local manufacturing industries and create employment for the teeming youths, as he implored residents to be conscious of indigenous goods and be patriotic enough to patronise it. “We cannot continue to patronise foreign goods and expect the economy to grow to the extent of accommodating our teeming unemployed youths; we must start making our indigenous goods a priority in our choice of demand”.

I’m not sure who the joker is here, the news outlet or CBN. The apex bank holds a summit in a rather questionable location(that’s not even the economic giant of the country) To talk about something of high value(economic growth) And the make the subject about spraying money? Also, how does spraying or squeezing money even enter the conversation? These so called people at the top are playing oh. Lastly I believe CBN has become more of a micro finance bank these days thinking of opening an account soon. 4 Likes |

Mumu cbn when that money leaves ur bank u have no control over it u can only state laws that people shud not accept such money as legal tender anymore so people who want to spend their money must keep it in a proper or certain state. |

Oga CBN shut up and come with your own quota that will reduce the suffering of the people.. The nature of our naira is a message to the government that all is not well with the land.. If everywhere get their small quota like shoprite, the naira nor go be like that.. But to the bus conductor of Lagos a thong like that is a s**p of tongue |
