Wednesday Walk - In search of Cash

in Wednesday Walklast year (edited)

Hey, friends, it is another Wednesday today and it is time to share my walk experience.


Today's walk experience was quite bizarre as I never intended to take a walk but the shortage of cash in the country caused me to.

The proposal to alter the colour of the three highest-denomination notes was unexpectedly announced by the Central Bank of Nigeria, the nation's top financial policy maker, last year. The deadline for updating outdated notes was set for January 31, 2023. The issue is that there aren't many new notes in use yet, and the old notes are still the majority on the street.

Due to a lack of fresh banknotes and the approaching deadline, several banks have declined to fill their ATMs with cash, which has left the general population short on cash. Today, while looking for cash at various ATMs surrounding my institution, I also snapped some incredible pictures.

Let's explore together, come along!


My first shot on my way to the ATM gallery

Still on my way. The Faculty of Arts is the structure in front

Passed along a popular park at my school

At the ATM gallery

When I tried the ATM, it disappointed me and said it couldn't issue cash.

I took this picture after attempting the second ATM. The bank's name may be seen on the signboard.

While heading to the third ATM, I took this picture of my hostel across the street.

There was likewise no cash at the third ATM.

Took this picture of a groove on my way to the fourth ATM

The fourth ATM gallery was vacant and did not disburse any money

After a lengthy and fruitless search for cash at the ATMs, I decided to use the P.O.S., a local facility for cash withdrawals.

The day's last shot. Not far from my hostel, only a few meters.
