PINKYS CORNER
It's so painful seeing a lot of bad things happening in this country. This government has just messed up big time with the masses. Don't know when we will get it right in this country, the corruption has eaten deep into us to the extent that, bank staffs are now into scamming, bribing and corruption.
Recently, POS business has been killed so badly, the only people who can keep going are those who are able to bribe the bank staff and also buy the new notes.
My experience yesterday: I went to the bank to get small money for my POS business but I was amazed when I got to bank and couldn't get new notes, was so angry and to make matter worse, I was told they can only give 20k- 30k to each customer....for wetin now?
As I was waiting for my turn, I met someone I know, who was coming out from the bulk room, I walked up to him and asked him if he was able to get enough cash and he said yes and told me to come closer. He explained to me that, he bought the new notes and now at his stand, he charges #200 for 1-5k because he had to make the money he used in buying the new note from the bank. I was surprised oooo. I thought he was deceiving me until someone else confirmed it. I tried to persuade them to at least direct me to the person but they refused.
My intention was to go to the person, get the new notes without paying him shishi then we will both start making noise till the bank manager and other customers get to know what's going on. I spent over 4hours in the bank and only got 30k mtchew, I just deposited it back and went home with annoyance.
Na only God fit help us I swear, as I dey now, I wan eye another business once I'm able to gather substantial amount of money because I can't allow this government to give me repetitive headache.
We move
Selling money? How can someone use money to buy money? Naija please dont give me headache!

INSIDE THE MIND OF A MAN GOING THROUGH FATHERHOOD
I can count the number of times I ever hit my sisters since I knew right from wrong.
I remember my last fight with them, it was with my immediate elder sister.
My dad gave me the beating of my life and warned me never to touch any of his girls again, he threatened to strip me naked, give koboko(horse whip) to each of them to flog my bare butt any day I tried it.
I was 8yrs old or thereabout.
This prevented me from even touching any girl in the whole neighborhood as a whole.
I never hit any of my girlfriends before I got married. Now over a dozen years in marriage, I have never touched my wife in anger. I have a phobia for even beating people in general.
My dad's discipline and warning caused it.
A childhood friend is a chronic woman beater.
His wife had left home several times but family settled them on each occasion. I have tried talking to him to stop it but he says he is only correcting her and doesn't see anything wrong with it. I had to distance myself from him.
You see this man, we grew up together in the same neighborhood. When we were younger, his parents would call him to come and "discipline" his sisters when they misbehaved.
He was still flogging them under the supervision of his parents when they were all above 18yrs of age.
Picture a 24 years old guy flogging a 20yrs old lady in their house, in the presence of their parents.
"Alloy, hold this wire, if she opens her eyes or puts her hands down, flog her"
"Ibukun, is it me you are looking at with bad eyes? James, give her a dirty slap for me"
"Edwin, your sister is still seeing that useless guy, do the needful on her body"
This is how it starts. A guy that beats his sisters to "correct" them will most likely beat his woman to "correct" her.
"Edwin, your sister is still seeing that useless guy, do the needful on her body"
This is how it starts. A guy that beats his sisters to "correct" them will most likely beat his woman to "correct" her.
The ball is in your court my dear parents. If you must discipline your child, do it yourself. There are other ways of doing it asides beating.
I dont think i tow that route with my kids....
I know someone who used to do this while i was growing up, and she turned out to be exactly what they were supposedly beating her for not to do.....Many people grew up with the mentality that beating is the only way to correct mistakes of a child but its wrong.....

I am filled with the Holy Spirit and divinely transported into the higher realms of life, far removed from poverty, sickness, death, defeat, destruction, and failure.

DeleteGood afternoon Stella...
DeleteThe cash exchange was announced since, initially the banks claimed that they don't have the new money then, CBN is yet to release the new money to them. CBN Claimed that banks refused to collect the new money. The story is not clear at all. The poor masses are now suffering for what they don't know. Some people went to the bank before now yet nothing.

It is not even funny. I’ve been upset all day cos I don’t know how we got to this point. We have a very long way to go in this country. You are charging people 3k for 10k....old currency for that matter.

ReplyDeleteSome banks are not paying,the ATM are not dispensing cash. It's so bad right now 😭😭
The queue is unbelievable 😑😑 even to do transfer now nko? Terrible network issue since yesterday! Haaa! It's crazy

ReplyDeleteGood afternoon famz
no expect aby fatter bone cos that talk na motivational speakers get am.
DeletePos business has been rubbished
ReplyDeleteI saw a guy yesterday collecting 2k for 20k.The struggle to enter the bank nko.
SDK,it's possible to use money to buy money.Saw a post today where whitemoney said in a club they were selling #700,000 for #1m
And bank have started giving denominations in #100,50,#20.
Let the election come and go
May God help Nigeria and Nigerians.
Yesterday, they told me they only have 10 naira notes 🤣🤣😂 I just respected myself and left.
DeleteSluttychic.
Sc
DeleteGod abeg oo 🤣🤣🤣
Yes...
DeleteI'm counting the days already.
The elections should come and go, I'm tired.
But honestly Nigerians don’t like progressive system. Please if you want your money to have value, start using coins and lower denominations. That is why the system abroad thrives. You only see lower denominations in circulation. If you want the higher ones, walk into the bank and make a request and you will go through rigorous interviews bc it is not supposed to be in circulation. It even cubs the ransom payments and politicians who hoard money. I’m happy the new note can’t stay to long in hoarding, it turns useless. Let’s see how they will be digging soak away pits to hide money. Let’s see how many N50, N10, N5 or even coins they will hide.
DeletePlease we need to stop complaining and look on the brighter side. It hurts now but it pays at the long run.
Stella Biko make a post on cashless system and the use of lower denominations. Abeg thé post will enlighten people on how seamless life is when you operate such systems. Thank you in advance 😘
Is a bright and beautiful day, May God send help our way, giving up shouldn’t be an option.

ReplyDeleteCheap men who are ready to turn tout on top of food, zero class or finesse.The head clown thinks it is by acting lousy and aggressive that makes him a non simp or whatever rubbish , anyway real men with dignity will not be led by such fallible and imperfect person"
😂😂😂
What's your definition of a Real Man?? Buying food for hungry girls?? Then sending them money and gifts like that BBN girl recommended bah? 😂😂
Go and sleep jor..
If you're not threatened you won't be crying under my comment.. don't go and make yourself useful for your own good
Thank you Anon for the words of encouragement to Stella.
DeleteAs a Nigerian living in Nigeria how can I do all what you typed up there to remove fine lines,what can I use. thank you.
Wow, how can someone wakes up daily to talk about relationship, simp men, women that. I feel so tires on your behalf. Like, what is wrong? Is everything alright? Is it not tiring for you? Did woman hurt you that bad? Or is it help me cry? From the place of love, I'm genuinely worried about you Dante
DeleteDante seems you hold grudges alot.
DeleteLol..
DeleteAnon you should be worried about yourself oh..
Sandy..
I don't have much time lately to be online,. When I do, I visit my last comment and try to finish off pending conversations..
Someone called me a cheap man, no class and one who lacks finesse cos I stood against nonsense.. now I'm here to ask her what her own definition of a real man is and you're pretending not to know what the root of the discussion is..
Did you bother to answer the question I posed to you yesterday? Or because you didn't have a good response you decided to act like you didn't see it .
Please if you don't want to be straight with things, do well to avoid my comments..
Typing isn't crying, constantly repeating a message over and over again is nagging and petty behavior, and who told you I am female.? Aggression, pettiness and lousiness isn't manly behavior. Empty barrels and all that.You suffer from delusions of grandeur, you are no paragon of what being a man is all about. You are not blunt but immature.I am more useful than you can ever be
DeleteLove that Psalm 23.. greetings everyone

DeleteHi Stella, you’re beautiful in and out. Don’t let the trolls get to you.
ReplyDeleteYou can incorporate retinol into your skin care routine. It’s will remove the fine lines and renew your skin. It does wonders!
You can start on a low strength of 0.01 percent and build up from there.
Cheers
Thank you Anon for the words of encouragement to Stella.
DeleteAs a Nigerian living in Nigeria how can I do what you typed ythere to remove fine lines. What products can I use. Thank you.
Anon 14:40, you can start with product like the ordinary, Cerave, cosrx, good molecules, etc. just find one within your budget and start with a low percentage like I said earlier.
DeletePlease use only at night, and follow instructions as directed on the product label.
Retinol comes in forms of cream, oil, serum, emulsion etc. just get the one according to your skin type and make sure to use a good hydrating moisturizer suitable for you skin after applying because retinol can be irritating to some skin types.
Don’t forget to use sunscreen daily. I hope this helps.

DeleteGood afternoon everyone.
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon folks , stressful afternoon but God got all of us, no matter what you circumstances are 🙏🏾❤️
ReplyDeleteStella the problem was that the bank was still giving out old notes, imagine we went to the bank on January 11th to make withdraws for the petty cash and the cashier gave us old 200k. When we complained they said that is what is available.
ReplyDeleteFrom ending of December few ATMs were paying new notes while others were paying old notes. Remember that most people here have access to cash at month's end and not like money was sitting in the bank without withdrawing. The only solution is to make some cash available like small bills to help people have access to money. Electronic bank transfers should be in perfect condition, what more self.
Pinky, they are selling these new notes, i heard that efcc has started arresting those selling new notes. A colleague told me today that yesterday in his area no physical cash so he gave someone 50k to collect 70k in 5 days' time. Imagine businesses that people are doing on top we that are managing to survive. I wish you can alert efcc that bank and their staff selling our naira and see if they will deal with them.
I only pity okada, those selling pepper, tomatoes and small business who cannot get pos. I have been doing transfers or using my card to pay for things i bought.
Good afternoon Bvs

DeleteHello ihn 😘
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon everyone.
Jewelu,they use money to buy money o. The bankers are really cashing out now and they're partially responsible for the shortage of the new naira notes.
Fatherhood poster,your parents did s good job with you,I like that.
My Paree nwa oma 😘 I'm doing fine and I know you are too. Abeg gist me about the dream na😂
Ms tee my good neighbor how're you and yours doing.My regards 💕

DeleteHi Mor 😘 hope you are good.
DeleteMy people here that use prepaid metre, please how many electricity units do you use in one month. My household normally use between 80 and 100 units monthly and I was thinking we are doing well because we always do everything to save energy.
ReplyDeleteBut since yesterday that I read where Pinky said he uses 73 units in two months, and that his neighbor uses 200 units in 6 months. 😮 I have been asking myself a lot of questions.
Is it that the different DISCOs charge different rates? Is the calculation done by the number of times you switch on/off a light or the duration that the lightbulb remains on? Hmmm because we can switch on/off like 100 times a day thinking that we are saving cost.
Pinky and others consuming lower units please how do you do it?
My dear everything has changed o
DeleteBefore it used to be 3k for 45units .. now it's 3k for 35units and 2k for 25units in pH sha o
Plus it doesn't last too.. at most 10days or more but not up to a month
DeleteIt's simple....if your metre is an hold digital metre then u will experience lower charges but if it's the new model then OTILO
DeleteTo explain further
DeleteThere are two types of metre and both uses card
U see the one u take it's card down to the electricity distribution company for unit loading has a low charges rate than the one who uses metre number(the metre number is used to buy unit and some serial code will be given to punch into a small digital system that looks like calculator in ur house)
It is costed according to area
DeleteNo power supply sincerely 3 weeks now. I know power supply generally is poor everywhere but this my side enh, it's been an issue. God abeg provide money for me and my family to be able to move out of here. wahala plenty for here
ReplyDeletePinky you wanted to collect and cause a scene? 🤣
ReplyDeleteStella they now sell both old and new notes here in my area. People are just grumbling. Old notes are #200 for 5k while the new notes are #500 for 5k. Even those who sell other things but not POS operators are selling it as a business.
Nigerians do not hesitate to monetize any situation at the expense of their fellow struggling Nigerians.
They gave my brother inside the bank old note of 5k in 100# denominations that they don't have new notes
DeleteThis country is just making life unbearable for citizens, to make things worse we are the 'one doing ourselves'.
ReplyDeleteAny small opportunity we have to be in charge or control like this we just turn things upsidedown. Nigerians we need God's intervention ASAP
Honestly we're really doing ourselves
DeleteFatherhood poster you must be an old bv for you to know the bvs you used as examples.

Good afternoon everyone, Nigeria is so frustrating ehn.
ReplyDeleteThe Pos guy we went to collect money from say we can only collect 2k.
It's well with Nigeria oooh.
Stella, we are using money to buy.money now. In clubs, N10k new notes is N16k #Kano. People are suffering o.
ReplyDeleteThe Kingdom of God is like last Sunday when some CBN staff came to our church to help the members with new cash. Max withdrawal N10k (new cash) and new N100 notes. Those that didn't come missed a lot and regretted not coming to church. Everyone got N10k new cash including our pastors. Na so heaven shines on us
No charge, no long queue.
DeleteThe kind of hardship we go through in this country can only be imagined. Banks are still giving out old cash, while the sell the new ones to the highest bidder.
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon Jewelu and Bvs.
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon 😊
ReplyDeleteIt's true people are buying the New naira notes
And I'm seeing videos of people spraying new notes like no man's business at parties. Na wah!
ReplyDeleteJust coming back from pos struggle since 7 am, it wasn't funny o,but as tomorrow na market I don't have choice, village people no dey take transfer. And they're also rejecting old currency, even to see thwbokd currency sef na war. Dail
ReplyDeleteThe Last person to leave this country 🇳🇬should remember to switch off the lights and leave the keys at the nearest neighbouring country. We'll come back when normalcy returns.
ReplyDeleteSaw this comment on Facebook
Good evening everyone. Things is becoming difficult due to no cash, please Ma'am Stella blame CBN.
ReplyDeleteLiving in Nigeria at the moment is not easy , to collect your own money from the bank is now war. No new note, no old note. To even enter into the banking hall is a problem you have to collect number. Was at the filling station today from 7.30am to around 11.20 or so, after staying on the queue for that long they said fuel was finished. How long are we going to continue like this in Nigeria? God we are tired, please have mercy on Nigeria because na your hands we dey now.
ReplyDeleteFollow who know road 🤣😂
DeleteI’m sorry Stella for chanting this all over the blog. I will not stop because a lot of people complaining now are the ones who voted APC Into power because of their biased mind of, they are not my tribesmen. It is good as all of us are gnashing and grinding teeth. Maybe, just maybe, they will wake up in February and do the right thing.
Follow who know road 😂🤣
Good Afternoon Beautiful People! Buying of notes is real,most P.OS operators are selling naira notes,only God can deliver this country
ReplyDeleteToday's fatherhood column said it all!
ReplyDeleteWe should watch what we do and how we handle situations, that is why Nigeria is in this mess.
Madam Stella, this bank and naira note issue is a big problem, and it's the fault of CBN & Banks, not the poor masses.
How do you tell people to go change their old notes without giving back new notes? Since last week here we haven't seen new note!
This week we can't even get hold of old notes, we are stranded. If not that we bought some foodstuff and we have these home foodstuff sellers who stock up major things and also operate POS and mobile transfer we wouldn't have been able to transact.
Even the tow is dry, movement, no noise as it used to be bubbly here, everyone is taking caution and staying back cos no cash to love about.
I'm planning to travel to another town by weekend, I'm still wondering where I will get cash to pay driver, I'm hoping to trek around town in search of pos with cash or hope driver accepts mobile transfer of cash.
Nigeria is the ugliest and most confused place to live in currently
This government is making life unreasonably difficult for Nigerians, things are not easy with us. I'm tire! Election should come already
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon beautiful people of God. My Nigeria people I hail oo🙌🙌
ReplyDeleteWalking up n down just to get 5k, no Atm dispensing, Pos is charging #200 for 5k. Se o whine mi ni ? Abi you dey whine mi ni ??
ReplyDeleteYou even saw 5k for N200, in my area, it's N100 for every 1k, I bought 21k today with N1,900 because the woman is my customer, if not, na N2,100 I for pay.
DeleteReading what people are going through online is really pathetic. Thank God I got some cash yesterday without stress and even when I went to the market to get stuff, I did more of transfer and spent less than 1k cash, though the bank app too was misbehaving, thank God I had money in my other account.
ReplyDeletePOS folks are really cashing out. I'm glad I don't need cash for anything now.
Those of you in Lagos should try and go to the island, they have a lot of banks in Ikoyi and VI wilt lesser patronage because na big man area 😁. Na just how to transport yourself to that place.
ReplyDeleteGood luck
