Although I have pictures to write on but Perhaps I don't know what to write on before now because I know there's always #throwbackThursday but now I have what to write on and I have picture to write on
This picture below is I and my girlfriend, when no cash was introduced to Nigeria by a corrupt Central Bank governor of Nigeria, uninformed, we only noticed that we couldn't withdraw our own money from the bank and if we go to bank, they make us understand that there is no cash on ground and advice us to use our debit card with whatever we want to buy. They started by changing all expensive Naira notes, giving the masses very short time to Deposit all cash we have at hand and change it to new one, but whenever we reach the back to deposit and collect the new note for spending, they would tell us that there is no new and advice us to come back later.
Going back to the bank later ain't the problem but telling us the same thing (come back later) is the problem, so we get used to buying things with transfer and this caused so much problem because most bank went network went haywire, it get slow most times and you would have to wait till the person you sent the money to receive the money before you are permitted to leave the place you both things. Some of the old men and women that sells stuffs like pepper don't accept transfer, they want cash and you would get it by all means because you will need things they sell, so it was a bad experience for Nigerians because some hospitals stooped taking since most transfers don't land in their account, so some sick people died on their sick bed, it was a bad experience for Nigerians then, it's been more than two years now.
On that very day that I and my girlfriend snapped that photo, we had to go to bank and fight that we need our money and threaten them that we'll close our account with them because we opened the bank with Cash and we want to collect our cash back but we shut the gate on us and made us sit in front on the bank entrance. There was so many queue, people that want the same thing we want and at the end, bank later gave us just two thousand naira cash to each customer (₦2,000) and we left peacefully
