A wise man — me — once said, you can’t appreciate money until you understand it. Don’t overthink the quote please; pretend it’s from Socrates.
This is Zikoko’s guide to how useful the Naira notes are worth.
₦1000
The dollar makes a mockery of its value but we’ll take what we can get. It’s also the only note with 2 people on it. Two heads are still better than one.
₦500
It closely follows ₦1000 in value. Okay, maybe not so closely, because this is the biggest value difference among all the notes. It used to be able to buy bread comfortably, but a big loaf is now ₦550. Depending on how good you are at pricing things, you can still get akube shirts with it.
₦200
Legend has it that whenever you want to squeeze money into someone’s hand, this is what you go for. It’s also the most common note to spray at owambes.
₦100
It’s probably the most useful note. It‘s often the dirtiest too. It can buy garri, pay for okada, and can even come through as offering in church. I stan a versatile note.
₦20
Groundnut, sweets, chewing gum and pure water. The four horsemen of twenty naira.
₦10
10 is happening. This is closer to a relic than it is to being a naira note. It used to be enough for pure water but even that is now beyond its reach.₦5
You’re more likely to find suya in the afternoon than to see a ₦5 note these days. Despite its scarcity, it’s still the most financially deficient note. If I were to give you one ₦5 note every hour, in one month, you would earn 3,650.
Now that you know what the naira notes can and can’t do for you, what about what the naira can do with you? Zedcrest Wealth is equipping its customers with a chance to work with money as opposed to money slaving away in a bank without any valuable interest. Click here to begin.

First, it’s the 21st century
We have a lovely anthem, but please, it’s almost 50 years old. This is the 21st century; we need to keep up with the times. And frankly, an Afrobeats anthem is what the nation needs at this time.
Have you heard his voice?
His voice is so good, we need to immortalise it by using it to remake our anthem.
His lyrics are fire
With a little Afrobeats and Oxlade touch, you can put the national anthem to better use to ask your partner out. Imagine picking someone up with “My compatriots don dey rise for you”. You’ll get married that night.
You can show your patriotism in the club
Imagine your national anthem being such a bop that it can make the energy go up in the club. You’ll be singing “the labour of our heroes past” while getting turnt with a bottle of Azul in hand.
It might have a shot at a Grammy
Nigerian music is stealing awards everywhere. Who’s to say we won’t win a Grammy if Oxlade rewrites this anthem for us? Think about the bragging rights we’ll have.
Nigeria would probably make more money
Don’t you want Ku Lo Sa-level streams for Nigeria? Imagine all the streaming money that’ll roll into our economy once he rewrites the national anthem. Nigeria could the use extra revenue right now, and if it means it’ll have to have a national music career, why not?
He’s already repping Nigeria anyway
He showed up for a show in Sierra Leone, and the whole place erupted like he was the president. Give this man an ambassadorship already.
