According to him,<strong> \u201cThey claimed they redesigned the naira, but that was a lie; the naira was never redesigned. If you keep the new 1,000 Naira in your pocket over time, the color will return to the former because it was filtered; they used Snapchat for it.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Speaking further, he said, the current scarcity of the newly redesigned Naira notes is only affecting the poor ones because an average bank will first serve the politicians and the rich citizens before attending to the masses. According to him,<strong> \u201cIf you are rich citizens in this country, you can get a bank manager to bring you the new currency in a billion van on a Saturday or Sunday. Have you ever seen a governor queueing up to withdraw the new Naira notes? It\u2019s never possible; the problem is affecting only the poor people.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dear esteemed readers, Share your thoughts on this article.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video<\/strong><strong> Credit: Channels Television<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Content created and supplied by: Dhanielblog (via  Opera<br \/>News )<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p class=\"copyright hide\">\n<span class=\"content\">    ,  .   ,     .
