My Thoughts On The Nigerian New Currency

avatar

I had wanted to just skip writing this but I came across another picture that pushed my fingers to the keyboard so bear with me as I rant about this, it's the only thing I can do about it and still go back to start using the currency since I would need cash after all.

I saw the update on discord first that Nigerian new currency is out and shamelessly, I got excited to see what it's like but that excitement was short lived. This is what I saw... The old and new currency of my beloved country.

I'm almost sure I'm not the only one thinking of it this way, what's the difference between the old and new currency? For me, it's the ink usage and I can't express how much disappointed I am realising this. I updated on my status with this image of the currency a line which I'll share here too

I can't express how much I'm not liking this update, too much ink and looking fake... What is it?!!! 😂

Someone actually made a joke about the currency that it must have been done by a lecturer that was good with Gram staining in Microbiology, I couldn't stop laughing at that. Well, it is what it is... This is Nigerian new currency.

And now, to the most shocking and annoying part of this redesigning.

The line of currency on the left is our old currency before this one that is about to be changed to a new one... It was what we used during the early 2000s and I remember how hectic it was to get rid of the coins that were being used to get a hold of this currency.

Now, another is about to happen but for a currency that seem exactly like that old one from the 2000s or is it just my eyes?

A reincarnation of an old currency... I agree with this lol. This whole thing is getting interesting but most importantly, I'm not liking it one bit.

I heard some minutes ago that Nigerians want to protest against the redesigned currency but I'm almost sure that it will all go in vain so I'm crossing my mind that I'll soon start using this currency.

Same value, more ink and reincarnated looks... We move.

Share your thoughts about the new currency, I want to believe that I'll find one who actually likes this update unlike me lol.

The new currency was very much unnecessary.
Tomorrow, the central bank would come out to say they spent billions if naira to print it.

True with all you have said @merit.ahama, the new Nigeria currency's look not good in the eyes, but I see that people will get used to the new redesign currency's.
The government has their reason for changing this currency. Thank you for saying this.

Of course, we will have to get used to it... It's not like we can produce new currency for ourselves or hold our grounds to continue using the old one.

I'm confused about something, the use of this.....
What's the use of changing the Naira notes?
How much does it cost to design a better one?
Why bleach the current notes and stress us to get rid of the former?
If there was no new idea, why not leave it?
The answer I got is " Seems this administration wants to leave a mark on the country", but my thoughts .....

the recession is proof enough of your admin Your Excellency, let us rest before you turn us to a joke.

Looking like Snapchat filter 😂

Seeing the new naira note shows the government doesn't rate us at all, like what was the point in the first place.

The whole point of this redesigning that I can get is that they had no idea of a new currency but wanted to by all means change it... Too bad, they could only come up with this

Naira is struggling with value and these bunch of clowns didn't see anything worth doing to revive the drowned naira than changing colors.

I won't be surprised to hear that they spent 100 billion naira on changing the note. This country na cruise, I don't still believe Nigeria exist.

The idea behind this was to stop fraudulent act during election, turns out even the change they are bringing is also fraudulent.
