With the naira redesign and ensuing shortage of cash, many are now stuck with old notes. If you’re one of such people looking for what to do with your old notes, we’ve got some ideas for you.
Give El-Rufai

Rag
Harmattan is kuku back so there’s more dust. CBN saw this coming and introduced the naira redesign just so you can use your old notes to dust your clothes and shoes.

Handkerchief
When you can’t put on your AC because there’s no fuel, use the old notes to clean your sweat and tears.
Sew cloth
If you can’t afford the ₦25,999 Adedoyin dress those money launderers fashion designers sell on Instagram, use your old naira notes as fabric for new clothes.
Make a wig
Is it in this economy you want to be spending ₦150k on bone straight bob? Better tear your money and get to wigging.
