CBN: New Smaller Denomination Notes Out In December

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on Friday said that the new smaller denomination notes that will come in paper form would be in circulation before December. Mr Tunde Lemo, Deputy Governor, Operations, said this while briefing newsmen on the sideline of the ongoing Annual meeting of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. The smaller notes are N5, N10, N20 and N50 notes. “The smaller denomination notes are being supplied by the printers and before December, you will no longer see tattered notes all over. “As I said, I have apologised to Nigerians that the reason we had old notes that are still in circulation was because of the issues around Project Cure. “We had earlier thought last year that we will transmit to a better note family which we code-named Project Cure. “But because of the issues around N5,000 notes and the resentments of changing the N5, N10 and N20 to coins, we had to go back to the drawing board and that was what has caused the delay. “According to him, the new smaller denominations will be in paper form with their features. “They will be on paper since we didn’t succeed in convincing Nigerians that those smaller denominations should be in coins. “But there will be a time in the future when we will all understand why they have to be coined. “But now, we are back to status quo ante; that is they will reappear in the old form that they were except that they are going to be in paper not polymer.” Lemo said that since 2009 the spending on printing of currency had been on the decline. He attributed that to the efficiency in distribution of the currency and printing of more of the higher denomination notes. “We used to spend N13 printing N1000 notes, if we had succeeded in printing N5,000 notes, we would have spent only N18; that meant that would have also reduced the cost of printing. “That was the message we were trying to transmit to Nigerians,” he added On the difference in the cost of printing in polymer and paper, he said that it was cheaper printing in polymer. “We would have spent less printing polymer because polymer substrate lasts four times longer than paper and it costs only 150 per cent more. “Unfortunately, whereas the substrate lasts four times longer, the ink fades pretty faster and so what’s the use of the substrate whose ink has faded and that was partly why we disengaged from polymer.” On the cashless policy, he said that there had been improvement in the use of electronic channels for money transactions in the country. Lemo said the volume of electronic fund transfer transactions were three times more than the volume of cheques. He added that N11 billion transactions were made through mobile payment last month, adding that more activity had been going on through the electronic channel unlike before. (NAN)/>

SHOCKING: Man Impregnates Wife, 16-Year-Old Daughter Same Time

There was drama in Kilgoris when a group of women stormed the home of
a middle-aged man believed to have impregnated his sixteen year-old
daughter.
The women marched into the homestead of Samson Momposh whose daughter
is nursing a one-month-old baby. Momposh is alleged to have slept with
the standard six pupil and fathered her child, an allegation he
denied.
His wife and daughter fell pregnant at the same time and are both
nursing babies of almost the same age alleged to have been fathered by
Momposh.
The women, armed with pangas marched Momposh to the Kilgoris police
station six kilometeres away and handed him over to police officers.
The man was remanded in custody and is set to appear in court next Tuesday.
DNA samples have been collected from father and daughter and have been
sent to the labs in order to establish the veracity of the
allegations.

Pre-school crack dealer?! 4-year-old boy found with pockets full of cocaine and cash in school

Forget juice boxes and crayons. A Philadelphia preschooler came to
class with crack cocaine and cash, authorities said.
The 4-year-old boy showed his shocking contraband to another student
on Tuesday morning, who told a teacher, Philadelphia schools spokesman
Fernando Gallard told the Daily News.
"The teacher approached the pre-K student and asked him to empty out
his pockets, basically," Gallard said.
Out came $173 cash and eight dime bags.
"It looked like crack cocaine and cocaine powder," Gallard said.
The teacher seized the drugs and money and took the boy to see the
principal of the Thomas Mifflin School, who called police.
School officials evacuated the building, and a police K-9 unit swept
the classrooms before students were allowed to return.
The boy was transported to a hospital to make sure he hadn't ingested
any of the drugs.
The boy was OK, but police and school officials still wonder how a
young child got a hold of street drugs and a roll of bills.
Police were questioning the boy's uncle on Tuesday,CBS Philadelphia reported.
Authorities say the boy is a victim, not a pint-sized pusher.
Chief Inspector Cynthia Dorsey said the child didn't realize the
danger the drugs.
"It is something to play with," Dorsey told the TV station. "He showed
it to classmates."
Elementary students in the past have brought drugs and even a handgun
to school, Gallard said, but he can't remember any as young as the
boy.
He commended the classmate for notifying the teacher and said the
school and other service providers would follow up.
"Whatever the situation is that he has access to these items, we're
going to be able to provide support," Gallard said.
