CBN POLICY AND MOSES IN THE BIBLE: 

Emiefele and Buhari's case is likened to the case of Moses in the bible who suffered in the hands of his own people. The Israelites he was trying to recuse from the slavery in Egypt wished they were allowed to stay back in Egypt. They couldn't see the glory of the promise land. The pain they experienced on the way as they journeyed to the promised land made them wish they never left Egypt not minding they were slaves there. They even blamed God for rescuing them because of small pains they experienced on the way. You see life? 

Yes, the CBN policy is biting hard on the people and even me inclusive. But if only we could see the benefits ahead, we will endure the wilderness so we can get to the promise land.

1.) Imagine a Nigeria without kidnapping (no more physical cash to pay ransom).

2.) Imagine a Nigeria without Boko Haram; because no "Ghana must go"bag to sponsor them. Those sponsoring Boko Haram don't do it with transfer but with physical cash.

3.) Imagine a Nigeria where governors will work in their state with the allocation they got from FG, because they can no longer launder money. 

4.) Imagine a Nigeria without vote buying. Electorates will elect leaders of their choice without being influenced with money. So the leaders elected will work hard for the people so they can earn their votes in the next election. 

On the contrary, vote buying made politicians not to care about working to please the people, rather they steal money to buy their votes again. 

5.) Imagine a Nigeria where house of Assembly members can no longer be bribed to influence a bill in favour of politician's interest. 

6.) Imagine a Nigeria where there will be less bank robbery. As banks will no longer have much cash in their strong room worthy enough to plan such an expensive attack.

Now, after collecting all the old notes, CBN observed that #200 naira notes are not part of the money stocked piled in politicians' houses, hence they decided to re-circulate only #200 to ease the people's pain. But old #500 and old #1000 are no longer legal tender according to President Buhari's executive order this morning. Babablu can eat the #500 and #1,000 notes with him.
