Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, has expressed concern over difficulty experienced by Nigerians in getting the new naira notes.

The VP on Friday in Abuja met with some players in the FinTech space to explore possible ways of mitigating the hardship.

Osinbajo urged the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and banks to deploy more FinTechs and money agents to the hinterlands to address the worrying situation. The Vice President stated that Nigerians need cash to pay for transport, food, and other needs.

“In Abuja how do you take ‘drop or along’ or use a Keke NAPEP without cash, or buy foodstuff on the road or in canteens, or even buy recharge cards?

“Parents with kids in public schools give money daily to their children for lunch, most commerce is informal, so you need cash for most things”, he said.

Osinbajo said it was disturbing that after depositing old notes, there are no new notes: “People everywhere in the urban areas and rural areas simply have no money.”

The nation’s second-in-command observed some FinTechs have mobile money licenses and should be engaged immediately.

He said many of them have micro-finance bank licenses and already have a network of mobile money agents or human banks or human ATMs, as they are sometimes.

“They can supervise by themselves. They can do currency swaps and open bank s.”

Also on Friday, President Muhammadu Buhari met with some All Progressives Congress (APC) governors at the Presidential Villa over the nara scarcity.

Sometimes when people think they are doing some people bad, they are inadvertently opening the door of blessings... The sabotage is clear for all to see... People love the story of the "underdog"...

Everyone is catching unnecessary feelings with the cbn useless policy as if it's the worst Nigerians have faced in these hellish 7years of these sadists been in power.
Oga osibanjo, holocaust is going on in several parts of this country especially your flocks in the christendom are been targeted but you choose to be politically smart,we never heard your voice. Posterity will you!

Tinubu is a thief, he is the one causing this problem, the two bullion van that droove to his house.

Kitikpa lachaa gi anya

Buhari go they talk something else, Osinbajo go dey talk another.

It's like he doesn't even know about anything going on in the presidency.

Examine his tone in this article. He sounds like an outsider. This is the kind of idea he should have discussed with Buhari.

“In Abuja how do you take ‘drop or along’ or use a Keke NAPEP without cash, or buy foodstuff on the road or in canteens, or even buy recharge cards?

“Parents with kids in public schools give money daily to their children for lunch, most commerce is informal, so you need cash for most things”, he said.[b][/b]

He was the VP when the CBN brought the swap idea to the presidency; why is he sounding like an opposition?

A professor cannot advise his illiterate President because he surrounded himself with dumb unintelligent and inexperienced cabal, Quite unfortunate



I can never be a deputy to empty head Person, I'll rather Quit



Osibanjo political career ended already, Buhari kids and grandkids shouldn't even think of national politics because their dad policies and mumu records had ruined their future ambition already

The Vice President has no powers.

I don't understand....

What happened to; Buhari will handle security, Osibanjo will handle the Economy? ...


Or was he locked in a cage while Emefiele presented the policy plans to Buhari?

BamakSNR:
