ReplyDeleteI don't know why our leaders enjoy making things difficult for us, the people spending the note said they don't need it, is it by force, if u print out coins now letter it will disapear, where is one naira and 50 kobo coins today? even the bank do reject coins. mtschwwwwwww. mumu Sanusi Lamido with wrong decision.
ReplyDeleteWhy would our Government can't sit down and define the problem of this country instead of bating about the bush, what value would this 5,000 naira note add to the people of Nigerians' under this economy situation, Nigerians' government should go for meditations.
ReplyDeleteSanusi go ahead, but one thing I beg you, coin the 5000. Then we shall rest our case.
ReplyDeleteI can see that our so called "bankers" are ignorants of the problems on ground.
its a big shame that rather than addressing the key problem of this country which includes corruption, we are talking about printing N5000 Naira note.
ReplyDeletewhereas in Holland, no shop/office collect 500 Euro bill, they feel is too much and at such you can only change that in banks or amsterdam or in the Hague.
pour leaders pls concentrate on improving the living standards of our people and not on who should get some percentage from the contract of printing the new bills.
May God deliver us from this insensitivity.
