Old Note Finally A Legal Tender In My Area by JOHNFBOSCO(m): 9:44pm On Mar 13, 2023
Testimony time, grin grin grin praiiiisssseeeee!!!!! God. Was on my way back from work this evening, then I decided to branch market ooo to use my ATM card to buy garri. I was with 6000 old note (500 denominations).

After my purchase, when it was time to make payment , I brought out my card oo, Naso the man tell me I fit pay in old note if I have it because everybody in the market now collects old note (Bayelsa, Opolo Market to be precise). It has now spread to all other major markets in Bayelsa. Omo my brain vibrate, was full of joy....

Naso I just enter market they buy all the things I need, omo I smile go house

I've heard horrible stories on Nairaland about what people are going through.


I've never been against cashless policy, but I have always been against the rush

I remember when I do ask why the CBN is rushing this policy, people dey always tell me I am scared because the policy is affecting Tulumbu.

It makes no sense withdrawing all the old notes while the Govt do not even have the capability of printing close to 30% of the cash that has been withdrawn.

All the Commercial Banks in Nigeria were not even ready for the cashless policy.

I wander why the Banks have been silence, they could have release a joint statement 😕
