The only thing the masses get from this government is stress upon stress while the more privileged individuals share the spoils.
God is watching all of us.

Which one is this again oh? Is this part of the ease of doing business? You just released anyhow information like that…no pre-alerts, no education given to the general public. Now you are going to start causing panic all over. Why always rush out policies without full thoughts.

It’s really saddening that this govt has chosen to punish Nigerians, what exactly did we do to deserve this kind of inhuman leadership? This is wickedness in its height, from a government that has failed to provide basic amenities to citizens but continuously tax us heavily.

That “failure to comply….” part is funny, more like a Headmaster talking to his students on the assembly ground 😂😂. RUBBISH!

Poor communication technique, very poor.
Where’s a date and deadline to work with?, what exactly is this new development for? Can’t BVN play it’s role? What incentive have you provided for ease of doing this? Are we to march to the banks?
This is not 1922!!

Can’t this wait?
Must it be now?

This is insensitivity at its height.
Why do we want to destroy the gains of the fight against COVID? The curve is flattening,do we want to create chaos?— Tutu (@Shobabs32) September 17, 2020
I think this is coming at the wrong time. You want the whole world to start moving to the banks again when COVID 19 is still around! Physical distancing will be completely ignored.
