Twitter user, Adamu Hayatu, has revealed how they sourced for two million naira cash to pay as ransom to kidnappers to free his cousin during the cash scarcity. 

He was replying to Prof Ashafa who wrote:

Kidnapping for ransome has returned after being on sabbatical with the Naira Redesign & cashless policy. A former Dep. Gov of Nasarawa was a victim, so too were many more.

Countering him, Adamu Hayatu said: 

We had to source for N1m mints and N1m old notes to get my cousin out during the peak of the naira confiscation crisis.

Dead this talk of cashless prevented kidnapping yen yen yen, please.
