THE CONTINUING ABSENCE OF THE SMALL NAIRA DENOMINATIONS ( i.e THE SMALL NAIRA BILLS ) IN NIGERIA IS WORRISOME

across the many cities of Southern Nigeria
e.g
Onitsha, Owerri, Umuahia, Enugu, Aba, Abakiliki, Awka
in Igbo-land / Ibo-land Nigeria

and

Lagos, Abeokuta, Ijebu-Ode, Ibadan, Ado-Ekiti, Akure,
in Yoruba-land Nigeria

there is a very visible absence of the

● 1 NAIRA NOTE

● 5 NAIRA NOTE

● 10 NAIRA NOTE

● 20 NAIRA NOTE

● 50 NAIRA NOTE

● 100 NAIRA NOTE

● 200 NAIRA NOTE

among the people

and this has a very negative effect
on economic, commercial and finance-based interactions
among the people.

it is actually an issue of concern that out of
the 9 (nine) currency denominations in Nigeria
it is only the

█ 500 NAIRA NOTE and

█ 1000 NAIRA NOTE

{ which are high denomination currencies }
that can be accessed with fair ease.

there is a critical need to push the small currency denominations into
all the 36 states of Nigeria and the Abuja Federal Capital Territory in order to facilitate and enhance

economic,
commercial and
socio-economic interactions  

among the people.
