Reality TV show star, Hazel Onuo popularly known as Whitemoney, says the new naira notes are being sold at exorbitant prices at parties.
The former BBNaija winner lamented the scarcity of the new Naira notes via his Instagram Story on Monday.
He said, “Nigeria is a beautiful country. We just have corrupt people handling the sectors that serve human purposes.
“How do we explain that there is no money in the bank both new notes and old notes, e no dey bank.
“I got to a party and I saw bundles of mint, N200, N500 and N1000. Who dey sell money to give these people? Who dey give them? That is not even the worst part.
The worse part is that 700k was selling for 1m naira with 300K gain on it.”
Nigerians have continued to lament the unavailability of the new naira notes. Despite the scarcity, the central bank of Nigeria had insisted on the January 31st deadline before it was extended to February 10th.
