Netizens react to CBN’s list of money bouquet as Naira abuse
The use of money bouquets and money trains became a popular trend among Netizens in 2021. It is a luxurious mix of Naira and roses or Naira in a way that makes up for a cake.
Netizens have reacted with mixed feelings to CBN’s instruction to report anyone found wanting to be involved in what is tagged as an affectionate way to show love. While many see it as a welcomed development and frown at the method that has since become conventional, others pleaded with CBN to halt its rule because Valentine’s day celebration is around the corner.
