He said when placed side by side with the withdrawal limit and the time limit it takes for the new notes to become legal tender and replace the old ones, it is clear that that is the major thrust of the Policy.

Mr Chukwu however added that the policy also has Other benefits that include fighting crimes, in particular as it relates to kidnapping for ransom, he said this will make it difficult for kidnappers to get the kind of ransom they will be looking for.

He said the limit on both personal and Corporate accounts will make the main aim of kidnaping disappear since it will be impossible to  get money.

He said the fact that people no longer go around with large amount of cash for lodgment in banks is an indication of the success of the Policy.

He however listed the effectiveness of the internet and communications network in the Country as an impediment to the Cashless policy which he said can be mitigated with the introduction of 5G Network in the coming months.
