NIGERIA IN DANGER AS "WHO" WARNS MONEY CAN BE A SOURCE OF TRANSFERRING CORONA VIRUS
coronavirus has been spreading like wildfire of resent, but this current warning from world health organisation is
pretty scary.
just of resent, the world health organisation (who) advised people to use contactless technology instead of
cash as banknotes may be spreading coronavirus.
the world health organisation advised people to use contactless payments where possible and stop using cash
because of the danger of spreading coronavirus; and to always wash their hands after handling cash.
the contactless payments which the world health organisation has advised us to use; is not that common in
nigeria today. you will agree with me that majority of people in rural areas don't have access to the contactless
for instance, the men and women who go to bush market to buy food stuffs and bring to the city to resale
definitely buy with cash because the village sellers do not use or better still, don't even know what contactless
payments means.
the contactless payments (cashless policy) which cbn has been trying to make it work all this while has not been
100% successful due to some technical issues.
