.ProfZulum to banks: We'll revoke your land if you fail to dispense new naira notes | TheCable
Zulum issued the warning on Friday afternoon in Maiduguri, the Borno capital, after visiting branches of banks to assess problems being faced by residents in trying to access new naira notes.
“As you can see here, only less privileged people are queued up. I didn’t see rich people here,” he said.Advertisement Speaking further, Zulum said the state government just released salaries of about N5 billion but the banks were not paying customers. “Yesterday I was in Gubio with a population of over 70,000 people but it was impossible to source N100,000 in the entire local government, neither of the new notes nor the old notes.”
