Money flowers were included on Friday’s list of naira misuse practices by the Central Bank of Nigeria. The apex bank announced this in a flyer that was uploaded on its Twitter account and that highlighted several ways to abuse the naira.
Along the money gifting, the CBN also lists spraying, selling, squeezing, and defacing as other abuses.
“It is your civic obligation to defend the naira,” the CBN captioned the image, urging residents to report instances of naira misuse. Today, report naira abuse. Additionally, it offered toll-free hotlines via which such acts may be reported to the apex bank.
Remember that Oluwadarasimi Omoseyin, an actress and cosmetologist, was detained by agents of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission, for allegedly abusing the naira.on Wednesday?
After a video of the 31-year-old splashing and trampling on freshly redesigned naira notes at a party went viral online, the woman was taken into custody.
This occurred when members of the EFCC’s Lagos zonal command began looking into the situation after determining that it violated Section 21 of the Central Bank of Nigeria Act, 2007, and that it constituted a crime.
Agents of the EFCC also confiscated a Range Rover and an iPhone that belonged to the actress.
A person who tampers with a coin or note issued by the Bank is guilty of an offense and is subject to imprisonment for a term of not less than six months or to a fine of not more than less than N50,000 or to both such fine and imprisonment.”
