Days after the Supreme Court’s ruling overturning the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) order to stop accepting the old and new Naira notes as legal tender as of February 10, Nigerians still have not had access to the currency.<\/p>\n

Despite residents waiting for hours at Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) and Point of Sales, Abuja’s Deposit Money Banks (DMBs)<\/a> have yet to demonstrate compliance (POS).<\/p>\n

The Supreme Court ruled on Friday that certain denominations of old Naira notes can be used as legal tender until December 31.<\/p>\n

A visit to some DMB branches in Abuja revealed that neither the old nor new notes were available; not even the non-redesigned N20, N50, and N100 notes.<\/p>\n

According to a bank official who requested anonymity, the bank has not begun paying out old notes because there is no directive from the CBN.<\/p>\n

According to the official, we don’t even have the old notes to give to customers, and the CBN hasn’t even started disbursing the notes.<\/p>\n

Findings by the News Agency of Nigeria revealed that the seeming non-compliance by the Federal Government was due to the inability to obtain the Certified True Copy (CTC) of the apex court\u2019s judgment.<\/p>\n

According to a staff of the Federal Ministry of Justice, who craved anonymity, the government must obtain the CTC before it can direct the CBN to comply with the judgment.<\/p>\n

He said that efforts were on to obtain the judgment from the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n

The Supreme Court had invalidated the Naira redesign policy on the grounds that it was not done with due consultation and in line with constitutional provisions.<\/p>\n

The apex court thus ordered that the old Naira notes should continue to be used side by side with the new notes until Dec. 31.<\/p>\n

The court held that the three months timeline given by the Federal Government was also not in tune with the CBN Act.<\/p>\n

A financial expert, Mr. Okechukwu Unegbu, commended the Supreme Court for legalizing the usage of the old Naira notes along with the new ones.<\/p>\n

Unegbu, a past president of the Chattered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria (CIBN), said that the Naira redesign policy had inflicted avoidable pains on Nigerians.<\/p>\n

According to Unegbu, the apex court\u2019s judgment has nullified the actions of the CBN as regards the Naira redesign project.<\/p>\n

He urged the CBN to immediately take steps to release the over two trillion Naira of the old currency it had mopped up through the DMBs.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn other words, the currency should revert to what it was before, and every other person, including the President and members of the National Assembly, should comply.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, it is a good decision because people have suffered. Many people could not buy food and medicines due to the scarcity of money locked in banks.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe apex bank said it had mopped up over two trillion Naira of the old currency, they should bring out that money through the banking system so that people can get money to move ahead and do their businesses,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Unegbu advised the CBN to execute the cashless policy in phases to avoid inflicting pain on Nigerians, especially the rural dwellers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no problem with the cashless policy but because of the state of the economy and the level of illiteracy, the CBN should have started implementation in phases.<\/p>\n

\u201cCashless policy should start from urban and commercial centers like Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, and Kano before moving to the rural communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou cannot make such a blanket decision in the Nigerian system because of the way we are.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe shortage of cash is worse in rural communities, where some people have never even sighted the new notes,\u201d Unegbu said.<\/p>\n

He urged the CBN to go back to the drawing board and design a more effective and less cumbersome implementation of cashless policy and financial inclusion initiative.<\/p>\n

Also, an Economist, Dr. Tope Fasua, urged Buhari to direct the CBN governor, Godwin Emefiele, to immediately comply with the decision of the apex court by making the old and new Naira notes available to Nigerians.<\/p>\n

Fasua also advised the CBN to ensure optimally functional internet capacities for the cashless policy to be effective.<\/p>\n

According to him, cashless policy and financial inclusion are gradual processes that require time for the banks to improve their capacity and infrastructure.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no country in the world where everybody is financially included, and there is no country that is totally cashless. It is a matter of effort and gradual progress<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople should be allowed to embrace cashless by themselves, not by punishment,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Fasua said that what Nigerians had experienced in the last few weeks, with the scarcity of cash due to the CBN\u2019s Naira redesign policy would further alienate them from the cashless policy.<\/p>\n

\u201cPersonally, I have been trying a USSD transaction for the past two hours; I have tried many times without success.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is because the platforms of the banks have been choked up, and they do not have the capacity for the kind of uptick they are experiencing,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He, however, said that the apex bank had recorded some achievements with the Naira redesign policy as more Nigerians have embraced it.<\/p>\n

According to him, Nigerians will become even more comfortable with the policy when the DMBs improve their online banking capacity.<\/p>\n

Fasua also commended the Supreme Court for its decision on the Naira redesign, and for extending the legal status of the old N200, N500, and N1,000 to Dec. 31.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is good that the Supreme Court has taken that decision because the policy has been painful and seems to have derailed from what was intended.<\/p>\n

\u201cTransactions have slowed down, especially at the micro level, people are no longer spending, even if they manage to get the new Naira notes they just hold on to it.<\/p>\n

\u201cBanks had started to shut their doors permanently as they could not cope with the pressure of their customers seeking to withdraw cash. I am not sure that is how it was meant to be,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
