My people election na next week and the way things they go , be like this scarcity of new naira notes go affect the election negatively and positively.

Positively in the sense say electoral fraud and malpractice go dey reduce, room no go dey for vote buying and corrupt politicians no go fit rig or influence election results but we to gats reason the negative aspects of this scarcity of new naira notes.

Negatively the scarcity of new naira notes fit make voters violent on election Day because as e stands Nigerians are hungry and e get waiting oyibo people dey talk say HUNGRY MAN NA ANGRY MAN. And Nigerians fit still leave the election, them fit no come out come vote because na who done eat dey get strength to vote, so this cashless policy na good thing and bad thing too for our country naija.

You have a point here brother. But e be like say you dey look the thing from one direction which e no suppose be so. I no go dey surprise say on Election Day money go just dey fall out from different angles, fear these our leaders oo, they can do the undo. All dis money wey CBN say dem dey release to banks daily, where you think say them dey go if not the politicians hands. Na dem get commercial banks and can sack any bank manager that don’t comply on releasing money to them. So don’t be surprised when money falls out on Saturday’s elections.

I just saw a video of presidential candidate Tinibu discreetly handing out wads of new naira notes to a man (whom I suspect is an Hausa leader) at a APC meeting. This goes to show that the politicians have cash in store and the changing of the naira notes didn’t affect their plans at all. It only made the masses more hungry and desperate. It’s a pity that we are not united, I believe if Peter Obi doesn’t win this election, he will definitely win the next one because by then the government would have shown us Shege pro max.
Cash scarcity no affect these politicians including Peter obi, becos normally them get there money and based on who dem be them go still get access to cash , but e no go dey as many as e been dey with the of notes, Our politicians stalking our old notes somehow contribute to the fall of our naira against dollar,
Naira scarcity no go stop them from buying votes e go only reduce am  to an extent, at least we go record a massive reduction in vote buying by 30%.

From my own reasoning and plenty super stories we I dey hear for radio, this resigned naria note scarce presently and I see am say some people win use am choke the election. The redesign go help limit vote buying because cash scarce and the cash wey dey outside for all politicians hand,if them release am  once, e no go fit reach one third of Nigerians. Na CBN print cash give to INEC specially to carry do their election waka. I hear say anybody wey dey go vote make e no carry money go election ground. Make we pray say cash scarce so that vote buying no go dey effective,if not it will be hard for us to vote out bad leaders.

Yes oooh it is very possible that the scarcity of the new naira note will definitely affect the election negatively and positively.
Negatively: not All who would have gone to the pulling unit to cast their vote will come because, they're some people who didn't register in the state where they are, and have to travel down to the state where they registered to cast their vote but due to the scarcity of Cash they may not bother to vote again because there was no to for them to request for transfer,
And there's some who will say, I have been voting and voting and all this leaders are rewarding us with suffering all the time and for that I am not going to vote anyone this time around because I see no benefit of my voting, and he or she will say look at the money I worked and suffered myself to make has been seazed and you want me to go and vote them again never..

Positively: the rate of extravagant spending of money is reduced because there's no Cash at the moment and we have a lesser withdrawal limit now, again vote buying will reduce, this time around there was no much sharing of money on campaign ground now, and another one is that it makes everyone to know the value of money and to learn to minimize and economize what you have,

Make you no forget say anything wey get better side also get bad side.  Anyway the better aspect of it be say  since na election we day so the rate at which our politicians go do vote buying go reduce drastically since no money dey to give out cash I believe say even transfer go fear them because then no go want anything wey go trace transfer activities to their account directly or indirectly. So them go dey very careful make nothing implicate them before Buhari go use them as scape goat for others to learn lesson. Then for the other matter of voters going out to vote too na another matter o as money no dey for cash now how person wan take sort things out wey go keep am for the time being before and after election.  People need eat first before the go outside for voting exercise but in a situation whereby person no dey see any more to ginger am wetin man wan go outside go do na.
Yes o, but make we try taste the better side too we done too taste the bad side for this country, bad side wey done bring us hardship and other things wey we all know,  so this better side even if e last for only two days or a week we need taste am,

Naira scarcity go affect election based on say e go reduce the rate of vote buying but e go reduce  In a way , and na waiting be this politicians they fear,  most politicians wey done farther looted funds to buy vote, the cash go dey useless for their hand.

In my own view I may say that the scarcity of new naira note may surely affect on coming elections negatively, due to many people don't have this money to travel to their various place to vote and this may seriously reduce the number of people that may cast the voter in election .infact I have see many business people complaining that they don't see buyer for their goods and they don't have money to feels talkless  of traveling to their villages to vote,and as for many students too. Seriously this scarcity of Naira note have turn a lot of things upside down.

Na true talk you yarn so, OP. In both positive and negative ways, the scarcity go effect the election.
While the corruption go dey reduced, it will not hinder the notes from passing under the table.
As of today, banks have been receiving cash, and hopefully before the election day, the cash would have been more rampant than now.

Negative for me go be say, politicians go carry new currency in their bundles come election ground through their boys then the highest bidder go get Nigerians vote. Right now from wetin I dey see, everybody dey find new note. E get where I enter on Saturday for inside inside village and this shop wey we been wan buy drink for there no dey accept old note or even transfer self and when I asked around, the new note no even dey available to withdraw.

As I see that kind thing na just the election dey go through my mind, e mean say if people bring the new note dem fit easily buy people mind oh because true true cash no dey that side. From wetin I dey hear, dem say na politicians dey make the new note no dey in circulation because dem dun buy all from the banks through the bank managers etc. I no believe the story to be true but this na Nigeria and anywhere you see smoke just know say fire they burn there. Rumours dey usually be wetin dey sup.
Chairman, beta sense dey wetin you tok and the funny thing there go be say these politicians no go need bribe thugs to go steal the box for them, new naira notes go do the trick.
 E dey sad say up till this time, new naira neva circulate and e come tally with the fact say election don dey near. Nothing wey dis our leaders no go use enslave person.

The APC now done dey fight president buhari because of this policy and we ak know the strategy wey APC they use win election Which is vote buying,  and most of this politicians done loot plenty money wey dem wan carry manipulate the electoral process but this naira redesign policy go try stop some of them no be all, if them been get another means then Them no for dey get issues with the president especially APC,
Sorry to say but as Peter obi no dey give shishi u no see am come out come criticize the policy because electoral fraud no dey em mind, but this governors wey dey complain dem surely get plans to rig the system .
The policy for now dey harsh for every Nigerian but as time goes by these public office holders wey done hip money for their house nai the policy go really affect..and the new naira efcc and CBN go they monitor am closely,
The cashless policy to reduce the influence of money to an extent sha.

My bro I no go whine you because I no see any positive effect of the scarcity of money because if this politicians wan rig nothing I mean nothing go ever stop them not even the cash because this one go even .make them pay the kind money person no fit resist but do their jobs.

Just as you talk about non participation  in the forthcoming election and sincerely of things continue like this till the election day then there will very poor rate of votes and voters because this period everybody dey vex and I no sure people really ready to die for the next man this days again. Obi don come see life and Obi don become man

These shortage of new notes dey cause more harm than good in the country and just of recent I hear of story wey person pregnant wife wey die because he no see money to take pay for the wife delivery and another story wey person just fall die for bank for over standing and these are are really disheartening.

I don find the link to those stories above but I no see am if not I for like make una see for unaselves.

I no dey see am like that shah. Instead of the scarcity to bring about violence, e go result in our naija people release the effects of being a partisan and voting based on say, them don cheapen you the least. This na the great suffering and as we dey weight on our mind like this, na that weight we go carry dey thumb print who we feel say, go make the suffering end. Na just say, make the vote count and e be like the Buhari led government wan use that one close office for us, a credible election. We go soon see how e go play out shah.

The effect way me I for reason na in terms of transportation of people to there various pulling unit. Na that one be matter but, determined Nigerians go always see am through. Make we dey sharpen our voters card and hopefully, this Elon network go be watin them go use make we no dey hear error.

Scarcity of new naira note fit affect election, but another part be say, if they no see money transfer go dey involved and they can do ringing at the particular time without no even count the vote of the people , so for me here is that we should not collecting transfer, and as he be now our leaders don turn our country to a place where you get money you can control everything you want to do,my advice be say make we suffer them and show them that we are the government and choose better person.

Don’t believe everything you read on social media, I’m surprised how many Nigerians buy this b.s story of redesigning the naira will reduce electoral fraud. Why is there so much drama about this election? Is this the first time we are having a presidential election? Somehow this election has been painted to be one that will cause civil unrest whichever party that wins. In my opinion, I think Buhari, CBN governor and their puppets made billions of naira from this deal, and were only concerned about filling their pockets. The politicians are not affected by this new policy, they were the first to change their old naira notes. I’m yet to see anyone who can explain to me how this new naira policy will stop electoral fraud.
