Poverty And Starvation Is Knocking On Our Door The Government Just Forced The Door Open For All Citizen To Suffer With Open Eyes

This has been the issue most Nigerians have found themselves. Some 3 months ago, the Nigerian government in collaboration with the central bank announced a change in the #200, #500, and #1000 respectively. Remember, the country is a few days away from her generation's election.

Why some persons are rejoicing over the news some others have becomes the final receivers? The worst of all is that above 30 trillion notes are being withdrawn from the system but less than 5 trillion is in circulation.

In my family now we have drastically reduced movement because you will not want to come home with the said old note as it's not going to do you good. Last Saturday while I was going to visit the lady that we want to sponsor in skill acquisition my husband told me on a serious note not to return home with the old naira note. I was seriously discouraged but on second thought I decided to go before I could get a bike to my venue was a serious case and none of them had this note in circulation.

Over the past week, my father-in-law got some old notes for us to help him a deposit, then on Friday we went to see If we can use the bank, it was a serious matter lot of people were under the Sun then going to the POS guy outside he said he was not collecting the old note again but if we want to deposit the new note its free. This sounds funny but ridiculous. How can you allow people to go through this suffering just a few days before the election when many are looking for ways to stock their homes?

What does this have to add to the system if not pain and hunger? Going to the market on Tuesday I needed to withdraw 10k for the shopping put I was allowed to withdraw just 5k with #300 charges. That's way too high.

Well, we will soon get over all these I just wish electronic banking gets better by the day because that's the only option we have now
