Are these still in use or phased out? I mean the 5,10 and 20 naira notes....Nigeria does not use coins anymore and i wonder why.... How can it be that nothing sells for 5 naira? Germany still uses even 1 cent,2cents, 5cents, 10 cents,20cents, 50cents and then 1 euro upwards.....

Let me date myself a bit. I met 50 kobo, used the 1 naira coin...it is a tragedy 5, 10 and 20 naira notes will be phased out due to inflation.
ReplyDeleteGood old days naira & kobo 😍
ReplyDeleteStella for where? even #50 now cannot buy much...either sachet water or chewing gum 🥹
Adunni
Wooow!
ReplyDeleteI used 5 kobo and 10 kobo those days @ Santana Primary Boarding School, Awo Omamma.
You can not get anything for 10# , talk less of 5#
ReplyDeleteI can't remember the last time I touched #10, #5
That's the problem we have right now, purewater was 5 naira before, but today, you can't even buy it with 20 naira, what a country!!!
ReplyDeleteI doubt if there is anything that sells for 50 naria in Nigeria now.
ReplyDeleteCan't remember the last time I saw #20 *sigh*
ReplyDeleteKai, I used 50 kobo and 1 naira notes before they were changed to coins. That is about 30 years ago.
ReplyDeleteWhen they were changed to coins people tended to reject it because they were heavy and tears pockets and bags, especially that #1 coin. When you have like 50 pieces (#50), it will bulge out and even tear your pocket or purse
That was where the problem started....
They are no longer useful
ReplyDeleteEven 50 naira is becoming useless 🤦🏿
ReplyDeleteIt lives now only in the archive of once upon a time and the fading album of memory, lol.
ReplyDeleteI still have a few old notes and coins tucked away - some old Biafran currency too. Say what you like, but those Biafra notes had real quality. You can’t even compare them to any of the naira notes (old or new).
I still have bunch of original cowries
