”But at this time that we’re trying to get the currency in circulation amongst everybody, people have to have numbers and they come in under a queueing arrangements that when you come in you get served, if it finishes, just be patient.

The Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria , Godwin Emefiele, has appealed to Nigerians to show understanding adding that the redesigned notes would circulate and be accessible., on Friday, in Lagos.

”In our meetings with the banks, we have told them to set up tents and chairs, give people numbers, which I’m sure some people will say it is old fashioned. ”I am going to be calling a meeting with the banks this evening or by tomorrow, if those charges go to or those charges have been charged through the bank, we are going to have an arrangement with even telcos to see how those charges can actually at this time be stopped.

”We will go into this later this night or even tomorrow, we’re going to call a meeting of both the banks and the mobile networks; at this time nobody should be charged, if you are charged, we will need to know about it.

With this poorly implemented policy, even when people get the new currency, I doubt they would be taking it back to the bank, thereby causing further strain on the economy or forcing the govt to print more, thereby wasting tax payers money, and worst of all lost of confidence

You’re a disaster

Stop telling us what to do, do what you have to do to make cash available and accessable to Nigerians.

If it's true a CBN Governor said this, then he must be investigated for taking drugs. He is highly on drugs

You may have good intentions, but the timing is very wrong.

Meffy keep destroying the reputations of the banking system. I have no doubt that after now, a lot of Nigerians would vow NEVER to have anything to do with a Nigerian bank.

Thief they talk.. He should go and clear Kazaure's assertion b4 coming on social space 2 distract our attention..

Calm! are you feeling them?

GodwinIEmefiele had 90 days to prepare for currency change and make it available across the Nation but he chose to play cricket with Nigerians...wickedness from the pit of hell. He has been rejected in heaven and his name removed from God’s book of life

Ordinary Nigeria can't have their money but bandits and terrorist are displaying the new notes.

Medicine after Death.

I talk am say e no go beta 4 dis man cos he understands nothing about how much suffering he's put innocent Nigerians who've worked for their money...e no go beta 4 d man & APC.

Ko ni r'agba fun bobo yi.

Na God go punish you oooo! We no get work abi or need to eat? For those who have been on the queue for days, what have they been able to achieve? Nahnsense!!!

Definitely this can't be coming from d cenbank , something is not right. NGRPresident sack this man immediately

How can the masses be calm when the new note are in the hands of terrorist who display and boost of it and can't be found in hands of those who ought to have them. Shame on you

Lol shortage of cash isn't the problem. Politicians clearly have stockpile of old naira notes they kept for election purposes and would not bulge until this policy is reversed. Simple

This man is just insensitive to Nigerian plight. Just so unfortunate

cenbank, We have reached a point where the licence of banks found guilty of sabotaging the CBN policy on new naira notes should be REVOKED. Yes! Banks are proving to be saboteurs. Emefiele should invite bank GMDs to an emergency meeting.

This guy is going nuts...like ppl do t av things doing than going into banking halls to queue and waste a whole day? Why not ATM then?

Emiefele has turn nigeria to Lebanon where depositors carry arms to the banks to not withdraw but get their hard earned money!!

Emiefele is sick like his principal!!!

Boohari boys already have access to the currency in their millions. But you that have been shouting get your wee wee cee and take back your kwantry up and down couldn't even withdraw your own money form the bank... No worry it will clear off your eyes very soon.. 🤡🤡🤡

Tell it to your children

Discordant tune!everyday you keep saying different things

number bfor accessing their money? indeed, Education could be a curse in Nigeria

😂😂

When the rumours of his allege sponsor of terrorism came out, alot of people where defending him. Is this act of his not terrorism and planning to distabilise the country.

Now singing Boys 2 men song ' I'm down on my knees... Begging you please...'

You are trying,we don't need it now please, allow the two to be, please

Where is the result of the CBN Governor's fight with Aboki FX? He simply lacks good ideas coupled with being controlled by Cabals.

The hungry man understands nothing. Fix the inadequacies.

Wicked.

When will all this end? They redesign the Naira without redesigning the hearts of the wicked politicians

I wish you are also experiencing what the people is experiencing.

When will it be my with the length of the queue

This is truly old fashioned, do these people have solution to this problem at all

When you hand over central bank of the zoo to IPOB what did you expect to happen? It will be worse giving them the presidency...

Am Tayaaaaaaad of Q

U well so 🙄🙄🙄

Is tent setting banking? This thing that ure doing is not good o. Continue. How many months do u have left? You've got a good legacy

Oloribu

I can't blame you is the President that you people just go to with nonsense policies and he always take it like that.

Emefele just dey play...

Honestly, this man is entirely incompetent to handle a sensitive position - he should voluntarily resign because he has failed as a Central Bank Governor.

A comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing grows from there.

Emefiele wants to punish us all for his failed presidential bid. These people are making decisions for Buhari left and right. Something is just not right inside AsoRock 😕. As the election draws near, the truth will reveal itself about Buhari and his cabal's evil plan.

Understand what exactly please speak up

Is GodwinIEmefiele joining bank queues?

You see what this useless man is saying?

Emefiele, the way you made life difficult for Nigeria, your children will experience difficult when they think they have it figured out. You won't be happy ever again over them. Wa fi omo rubo ise. Useless man. So people should leave work to queue

I swear, this man no fit address people for public, dem for don use stone wire am comot.

God punish this man.

This man is insane!

The same way we are praying to God onnour knees to see you and your children suffer and never know peace from henceforth. Emefiele

Nigerians too like anything rushing the policy has been made and is what we can achieve with good understanding and patient but we no go hear,No pain no gain.

E no go better for Emefiele children. Ogun lo ma pa

Lol

Banks are selling these monies to POS agents!!! Filling stations are refusing POS transactions and insisting on cash too. If this is not resolved in a week, there would be serious problems
