 The Central Bank of Nigeria says it has dispersed over one billion Naira to commercial banks in Edo state for onward payment to their customers. Director of Risk Management Department of the Bank, Dr. Blaise Ijebo, who made a disclosure about briefing journalists said the CBN has allowed commercial banks to pay over-the-counter up to a minimum of 20,000 Naira per person in a day. While appealing for calm from residents of Edo state, he is sure that more of the new redesigned Naira notes will be available next week in the state. Well, following the recent pandemonium that has trailed the unavailability of the new Naira notes across the country, residents in Edo state have been reacting to the development in his reaction and entrepreneur, Aydmi Omurge, launched the initiative, but however falls the timing. 65 has suddenly jumped up to 550 per liter. And who suffers this in the most? The common man on the street. We have battled with that for some time. Then the Naira scarcity came in. The only thing that we have, although we are going for us in this country, is the availability of cash. The common man on the streets depends on that. The liberals on the sides depend on that. The women selling tomatoes depend on that. The truck pusher depends on that because at the end of the day they are sure of getting their 3,000 Naira to take home. He also challenged presidential candidates of various parties to present their blueprints for small businesses in the country. I want to call on all contestants as far as the presidential race is concerned. We have listened to your policies. We have listened to a lot of things, a lot of promises which were not new to. But none of you have been able to tell us if you are going to create a ministry for entrepreneurship or not. You agree with me that SMEs cover a larger part of employment in this country.
