Topic: Person wey get money no fit spray the money again? (Read 244 times)

Without being told, spraying money is an offense given under the country's law. No be because for long, our country government don been d overlook this and not putting eyes into it, we come think na normal thing for one to spray money at any event he or she pleases without knowing the fact na their country's currency dem d abuse like that. Nevertheless, this law wey FG put in place for naira abuse na to curtail the abuse of naira, so that Nigeria's go get regard for it. No be to be spraying money anyhow like it is worth nothing. At least there supposed to be a manner of respect when holding a naira. Em go better to give peso money in bundles than spraying it one after the other just to show off. I believe na wetin our government want us to be doing "give out money in bundles for occasions than spraying it"

One thing for this country be say make person just dey do legit business wey no get anything to do with money theft because when your hand dey clean justice go speak for you no matter say for this our country the judiciary system too dey poor to carry out cases.
Cubana Chief Priest nah tight business man wey dey popular for ye country and em get influence even outside this country so the arrest wey them arrest am nah just because of money. Although, me I no too they reason that one sha but my own be say where all those money wey pipo dey use bail them sef dey enter? Watin them dey carry am do? Even those good wey customs done size even after them collect bribes, were those money and goods dey enter? Well if we start to dey talk about this country this page go full. So as e done be say if person spend em money sef nah problem nai be say the bets thing to do nah to just dey spend am jejely, instead of to spray for occasion e better make the person just send the celebrant any amount wey em feel say go dey okay for ram...

Nobody Dey above the law, and if them catch any obvious person, not just yahoo boys, them go arrest and sanction such a person.
Normally I know say, everybody Dey para for government and anything wey government do outside of reducing the cost of things an rubbish  for now as long as Nigeria is concern but sincerely these men Dey abuse the currency and you need to Dey were men Dey para with fundz then you go agree with government say, then need to put law but these men for wait make I first do my wedding before all these regulations and I don talk am say, these country no like me, as e reach my turn to start life, everything just Dey change for the worst.

Before now di federal government don dey warn about naira abuse and mutilation but pipo no dey take am seriously, so naim dem decide to go afta high profile persons wey dey commit dis crimes so dat everybodi go take di mata seriously. But dis is Nigeria, and everly e get some persons wey go get a free pass. I believe small small dem go begin go afta yahoo boys wey dey also mutilate naira.

How me I dey reason dat bobrisky mata be say him don offend a very strong politician or businessman wey wan teach am a lesson because of di way dem handle him own mata, him lawyer bin ask for bail which dem even turn down.

The money you are spraying or you think it's your is a property of the central bank of Nigeria and at such the government has the  responsibility of making sure that the Naira note is not defaced. You only own the legal right to have those money in your account because you worked it, and not to destroy it or defaced it.

That's why there is a law against the act of destroying or defacing the currency. In as much as you have the right to spend your money, you don't have the right to destroy it or cause damage to it. Nobody is stopping you from exercising your right, but you must do it in a lawful way. So people that the efcc are going after committed a crime and there are evidence against them that's why they are being arrested. That you rent someone house doesnt mean you should destroy the property. Use it the way the person asked you to use, anything outside that is not advisable, you will pay for any consequences that may arise.

I wonder o, I no know wetin be Naija people problem for this our country, if u do like this na war, do like this na still problem, person no come know wetin dem really want, for money wey u suffer get, na we no get right to spray or spend am as we like without going to prison or queried about, sometimes I dey ask myself say which kind country wey dey so, for ur own property o, na person go tell us how we go use our properties them, now people don dey mind the way dem dey do things especially that money side, everybody just dey hide their true identity just not to get involved with EFCC dem, even for occasions dem, people just dey do things on a low, to avoid problem, for  money wey I suffer get o, like say I dey beg them to give me money, just imagine how bobrisky matter be, e just end up to stay for prison for 6 months , for which crime kwanu, just because say e spray plenty money o, this country people just funny ehn, till we discover say na we be the cause how crime still dey increase for this country, our country no go still dey better.

It has nothing to do with exchange rate nor does it affect the value of Naira in a positive way.
This law has been active since before the late mother's burial ceremony of Obi Cubana and although nothing happened much then, except he being invited to explain the source of his wealth, the current administration has a lot to do with influencing the enforcement of many policies that were left rather ignored, by the past government.

Ignorance of the law is not am bcos it is against Nigeria Constitution to be spraying money up and down this was the reason why bobrisky and cubana chief was arrested though cubana chief priest pleaded not guilty and was granted while bobrisky pleaded guilty and still in detention. Now the fact de money belong to u dose nt mean u can use in whatever manner u feel like .in Africa especially in Nigeria we do things without being conscious of the law.

I believe say this new law go help call people to order, especially those our Nigerian police wey dey stand for road collect 100 Naira, squeeze am put inside pocket. But come to think of the whole thing, a police man go arrest em follow police man if em see say eh squeeze money put for pocket? I no talk say make them no punish people for violation of country laws oo, but then charity begins at home. Make people wey dey implement all these laws checkmate themselves properly and I dey pretty sure say na them go even violate the laws pass and still go scutt free. Una go see am say very soon videos go come out where politicians or some law makers dey spray money or violate same laws but still no law go hold them, the case no go even reach anywhere but when common men violate laws them go dey maltreat them like animals. My advice to our country people na say make una dey extremely careful with this new money policy and avoid anything wey go make you get charges of violation of the new law, be it squeezing or spraying at occasions.

It is true that Cubana Chief Priest is more influential but this has nothing to do with naira exchange rate. It is about naira abuse.

The Nigeria government is reinforcing every solidable means to ensure the currency remained stable when traded towards other developed countries currency, like the exchange rate will be balance just as the dollar. I think they're doing a good job to maintain this new regulated order. As for one of the richest bar man for nigeria, Cubana Chief Priest, he is different from Bob risky wey EFCC sentenced to 6 months for the abuse of the Nigeria naira currency. Na this thing I de make reference to, level de this game. Cubana na 30 GB and we know say dem no de carry last when it comes to handling matters before e go escalates.

Nigeria is not a serious country you should know that by now, they know our pressing needs and they busy chasing shadow, it is bet sad that we found ourselves in this kind of ugly situation, using your wealth to help people in the society is now crime, so If am wealthy I don't have the right to help celebrants with my money again, I think our law makers are not doing their job very well, this is the best time legislation should be taken serious , this right of the masses has been tampered and the executive has to be cautioned for this reckless way of using power, they have abused power a lot and something has to be done about it, Nigerians are facing hard time, this kind of news should not be making news again, how would a serious government reason in such a shallow manner, there are looters of public funds in this government why not face them instead doing otherwise.

Do not mind them. Cubana Chief Priest is not going to prison is all what I can see. Sending Bobrisky to 6 month in prison is unfair and not called for.

I can see Cubana Chief Priest and Davido together very well. Davido Uncle which is the governor of Osun state now and Davido's father are very powerful and influential people. Also the guy will know a lot more of people but those two people are enough.

Lol, yes, i think the whole bail conditions is stringent to make sure say the defendant go return to court when it is time for the next hearing. Dem also make sure say the defendant submit him international passport, i just think say all these na part of the process.
Na true wey you talk, i no think say e make sense as dem send Bobrisky to 6 months in prison, e dey very harsh. Naira mutilation don dey happen for Naija for a very long time now, e get better ways wey dem go fit take create the awareness say na crime, rather than going after only celebrities.

I like how Central bank was been serious about this Naira mutilation of a thing, it has sent a message to many ignorants people who don't know law, with two victims that were arrested within the few days even someone who is not active on the internet will have gotten the message by now because arresting a person like Obi Cubana chief priest is one of the reason why they took him in despite knowing he is not the only person who is guilty of this act.

Atleast people that love to oppress friends that the have money will all stop now and even if they did spray money in parties and ceremonies, they will make sure no phone is allow to avoid people from making videos because I'm very confident that nobody want to be victim in the hands of the government.

Your money na your thing now, and nobody talk say make you know use am do anything wey you like, but e no mean say you go come Dey rough handle money now, if you Dey spray naira make people Dey step on am e mean say you no Dey respect the currency be that now, if you see Wetin some people Dey use money do, you self go shake head say e no make sense now, but if they start to Dey arrest people now, then plenty people go get sense.

I know say current Nigeria problem pass that one now, but I still like d idea, if you spray money or you do anyhow with naira, then make dem arrest you, make you go face judgement.

The once wey Dey spray money, or the once wey Dey destroy money, if hand touch them, Dey will surely be punished, and na double punishment they go even get self, because na yahoo boys dem be again. If you destroy your property, then no wahala, but na Nigeria currency Dey no want make u misuse or destroy.

So how we dey sure say if one top politician spray money for event EFCC go arrest am. For Nigeria na only you wey no dey connected and government dey envy your source of income, na him law dey hold, including poor and average man.

I think that there are better thing to look for solution to, especially this high rate of inflation, and not arresting people enjoy the fun of spraying money in occasions. However, if the law will apply to everyone I support am. So why Bobrisky own different wey make government no grant am bail, abi he no get 10m.

Na the Yahoo boys dem sef go dey very easy to pick. But I guess government wan start with popular faces first. You sabi sey death wey kill Alhaji, if e catch ordinary Mallam na to tear am into pieces na. First na Bobrisky wey buy bobi and yansh. Now, dem don move to Chief Priest. Na small small, make all dis madness with naira mutilation stop. Nor be recent law sha but na dis administration get balls to act on am. I applaud dem for dat.

Make we reason the thing well sef, spraying na unnecessary show off e bi. Nothing else. If you wan support person for event, send am cash for hand or transfer am give am, na the same value dem get.

Omo I feel say government wan really take the law seriously this time around, because according to watin I see the law don dey into existence since 2007 but we no dey recognise am or obey the law.
If the sentence of bobrisky or the arraignment of cubana chief priest go stop people from spraying money for occasions go stop, no be these arrest go do am. They also need to some orientation in our towns and villages to enlighten more people. Because as we speak this weekend, people are going to still spray more money and the EFCC cannot get to them at once, however this has been a cultural that has entered into the fabrics of Nigerians, so it is something EFCC will use the carrot and the stick approach to resolve overtime and not overnight.

Spraying of money na Nigeria tradition, E go dey very hard for them to stop people from spraying money because Nigerians don dey use to am. Although Nigeria law dey against or prohibits people from spraying of money, trading of money, tearing of money and many other 
Types of abuse of the naira note. I think oga Charles tim don shear the link. I get another one too, you fit click here the only reason this thing even affect these people na because them be celebrity and influencers. FG no say if dem hold dem say something go come out Naim make law hold them. Because I know how many weddings/traditional marriage or burial ceremony dey go on for we country Naija everyday, wey dem dey spray money, but since dem own no dey obvious Naim make dem no worry them. But for sure that matter no go go anyway people must continue but no be say I dey encourage them o, na just weting I no. Because we 9ja we too storbon.

According to what I saw online, 6 months in prison or a fine of ₦50000 is the punishment. But read what I posted below.

Bobrisky was sent to prison for six month without the option of a fine. Cubana Chief Priest was bailed with ₦10 million with 2 sureties. A court case that will lead to ₦5000 fine supposed not to lead to ₦10 million bail I think. This is Nigeria.

I think option of fine is enough. It can be ₦100000 for rich people and ₦50000 for people that are not rich. Most naira mutilation is done more by the masses which are average and poor people. If they want to see naira mutilation, they should go to the market, vulcanizer shop, mechanic and rewire workshop and other places like that. Also the kids are among.

I have a nature not to rough books and money since I was a kid but I noticed anyone that I give my book or give money to keep it which I will later collect back, they would have been slightly multilated. This is just part of what is happening in Nigeria that only awareness and some strict actions can be effective against but they are not doing anything than going to celebrities. It has no sense because this can not stop naira mutilation.

The thing be say most of this celebrities dey abuse naira, by the time wey u take dey hustle and beg baba God to bless your hustle, you no mean am to dey spray money anywhere you go, those celebrities own is getting out of hand, see orphanage home they can make a donation, many are out there who a lack of foods but that one no dey ever come their mind, they go to the club short down everywhere spray money the way they like, they still dey spend money for people wey don already make am for life. If you see the way Cubana chief Priest dey sprayed money on each event, you go dey wonder if na just barman the man be. Maybe na them the governments dey see and reason everyone of us dey do well for naija oo.  . Since EFCC don start to dey pick them now, i believe say them go dey spend on a lucky.

If you attend your friend wedding and spray money, will you video yourself and post on social media? I know is happy day but i think it is the right time we put senses into ourselves sef. We said we need better naija, so make we agree with anything wey we see that time.

My brother you get point as e no make sense to dey step on currencies like that because you dey try tell people say the naira no get value or respect, that nah true. See the angle I dey come from, I no wan defend wetin him do but make we dey honest, Cubana no for dey do wetin him do if say the naira actually get small value in the first place. Who dey go meet these our oga Dem now wey tins don escalate out of hand because of the devaluation of the naira? You no sopoz look within yourself first before you cast the next person.
 If say we contri nah place wey dey folo strict rules shebi e for no tink to do am in the first place but becos e know say Las las nah fine them go fine am and moni go still run hands and the mata go die..that wan nai be judgement?
 No blame anybody if them choose to disregard the laws of the contri because if you check, the pipo wey put am nah fail am pass..

Op, Actually there's nothing wrong in spending or using your money anyhow but someone who actually know how long or how hard it took him/her to make the money they will have limit ( I mean the person will mind how he/she will spend and they spend moderately) but someone who don't pass through any stress like physical stress will be spending money anyhow because they doesn't feel any stress when making it. This period people are looking for where to withdrawal money and EFCC saw someone spraying it anyhow they will suspect you definitely because it will be assume you pass through illegal process to get it.

Firstly the government on its own get hand for how excess the naira dey because excess printing of this currency na him Dey cause everything and it should be stopped or a counter measure should be taken.

Now to this two people even though they are plenty of their kind that the EFCC needs to take action. But saying Cubana Chief Priest get him right to throw money anyhow is not true, he is in a land that has laws and if you want to live you need to behave like the Romans. If you check well no other country most especially developed countries allows the disrespect that some citizens put on naira notes. This is a national currency you can’t be throwing it out and match it like that. Yes we can argue that they are not the only people and also there people on high places that have done the same but all in all it is wrong to do that

Is it just me or the actual matter na matter wey I don hear tire about the naira abuse issues but at the end e still dey end up as a matter thats left to die off, although the government this time around is something else and if they can actually carry out what they are protesting against then it's good but if they can't then it's probably another failed agenda of the many that trends in the country but I must commend them sha for working so that the naira will gain value but the only thing now be say person never really see the impact of the change because things still dey worse everyday.

I agree with you about not giving any respect to naira and with all this occurrences people will learn and know that there is actually law that guides spraying and abuse of naira no one expected it to be taking seriously, i know of other countries taking polices guiding cash serious if you abuse it you will go to jail for it,  because even the way people handle cash damn, the cash will look so ugly it high time we give give value to our money.

And the government can not fixing everything for us we need to be responsible for our self in taking care of our money, if you go to the market you will see all manner of cash, but with this seriousness now will reduce abuse. even with the awareness people will still not learn that is the problem especially in the market they need to give those people good orientation about how to make use of money.

Mate no be only you this EFCC matter they worry the matter touch everybody as far as is Nigeria, could we imagine person with his own money no fit use am the way like. And the funny be say is not that the time the person is hustle to find the EFCC are there with him bo them them give am the money and they want arrest him punished him just because is spraying the money.

So as it now I know fit attend my friend wedding and spray any money EFCC will is Naira abuse, but for me honestly is not the Naira abuse since is not that I do it intentionally to make proud of my self  is an happiness day which everyone needs to show hands and bring out what He/she have, we  all the value of currency and we do respect to respect our currency.

There is actually a lot we believe to had attained to be our personal belongings and rightly, it is ours but there are certain measures some of those our belongings is expected to be utilized which the government do have the right to intrude when necessary.

Little to be mentioned which we can personally own and the government would still have the rights to regulate it are...
* The vehicles

* The licensed assets including our bank account where our funds are stored and so are accessible in concerned of monitoring incoming and outgoing funds there in.

* Landed properties and properties.

* Telecom networks such as your preferred SIM like MTN, Airtel etc.

You can imagine how you could afford all these with your own money and find the needs why the governments has right over them? I hope it is no so stressful to be digressed.
Governments has right even on lives and valuables such as yourself who do not have full right of yourself. Imagine a threat to your own life by yourself and then see how the government Will be in concern of it.

They are just there to main orderliness and making living safe at fare. That is the reason why they have all these regulatory accesses. Lets keep aside that they are being sentimental where they ceases to have equal judgments amongst everyone.

We all saw what happened between Bob Risky and the Cubana Chief priest were they both fall same law of the naira abuse but Bob Risky was sentenced to 6 months jail without bailing conditions while Cubana Chief Priest was placed on bail with #10 million.
That is indeed a  sentimental system of judgement by our government which even them are also victim for the abuse of power.
The issue there is who will the be answerable to if questioned?
Just bad government of ours here and there .




The currencies being spread publicly and watching people stepping on it or even squeezing it stands for abuses, mockery and disregarding of the traditional currency conveying that it doesn't have value to the economy and the society at large.

So it is a slap to the government and the financial sectors even to the economy regulatory authorities that they are regulating invaluable materials. So they constituted the law to respect the naira and use it respectably so that it can also be regarded in the foreign sectors.

E be like na the new wave wey EFCC use start work this year be this for real o. It's good sha.

It's good that those caught abusing the currency of this country be brought to attention like as was done with Bobrisky and currently, Cubana Chief priest.
I don't think they are the only defaulters though, but they happen to be very loud and on social media about the event that made them larvish so much funds, instead of gifting it in an envelope, to the couple or to the people organizing the occasion.

I think if we learn to respect our currency more, we would have more value for it and use it to invest rather than to show off to make others envious or jealous of such larvish lifestyle.

Me I welcome this idea of fight against naira notes abuse because of the cost in producing those notes and most times those notes get destroyed which will still be returned back to the bank, and the government suffers the cost of maintaining the naira note due to citizens abuse of the national notes.

But then also naira abuse can not be controlled but with the new awareness it will be reduced at least public spray of money will end for both politicians and celebrities.

Naira mutilation is an offence in Nigeria, i know say for a very long time dem don dey overlook am, but right now government wan create the awareness say e get as you go use the Nigerian Naira wey e go be offence. Things such as spraying, hawking, squeezing, writing on the notes, etc, na offence and the punishment be say the offender go spend 6 months in jail or the option of N50k. So this matter no be violation of human rights, Naira mutilation na offence, but plenty people no know before, but now dem know.

 My brother, this mata tire me too becos I take style reason d mata and later come to the conclusion say nah country wey no really get wetin Dem wan use hold hand nah dey carry these kind mata seriously. See nah, no be today the naira begin dey receive abuse and of we check am, no be only we naija big boys dey play with this moni anyhow; for other countries, we dey see am bit we neva hear say their police go arrest them for dollar or other currency abuse but as naija dey use every method to take siphon moni, them use this one put as law.
 Cubana chief priest na guy wey dey within him rights to do wetin him want with the cash but it's like these bodies wan show am how to use the money e work for.


 Baba, all these wey dey outlined nah good reasons to call person to order but is there no law against the devaluation of the naira? Or them wan yarn say them no dey guilty of these so called laws them put? Abi them dey run d mata unto say nah who them catch dey face penalty?

The government will only see it as naira note abuse awareness.


I think they are three now. Recently it was Bobrisky. Now it is Cubana Chief Priest.


But there is nothing that will stop naira note abuse. Those seen on video were arrested. Or maybe the EFCC has just started.


Edit: He has been granted bail for ₦10 million with two sureties in like sum

As part of our fundamental human right I believe person wey own property or wealth fit use am the way e want because man get liberty to do anything as long as the thing no go worry another person negatively. I come Dy wonder why EFCC come Dy attack people way they use their money the way dem want.
No b say the person na politician or get appointment to say the money na government money. Man struggle for him own money and anything wey en use am do wey go give am joy  nay e go do. Today I just come stumble over this news d thing come taya me.
Ok make I ask question, what of those yahoo boys wey Dy spray money like this, some Dy even deliberately destroy properties worth millions just for dem to pay for the destruction as a way of show up.
