The NOA Director in Sokoto, Alhaji
Abubakar Danchadi, made the disclosure in an interview with the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN) in Sokoto on Saturday.
“The nation’s currencies are part of
our national symbols and it is regrettable that they are grossly abused in a
myriad of obnoxious ways.
”These include mutilating them and spraying them during ceremonies, thereby
marching on them.
”These also include putting them in parts of the body where they are not
supposed to be kept,” he said.
The NOA Director further said that the currencies should be patriotically
respected by both Nigerians and non-Nigerians alike.
According to him, all Nigerians must respect the currencies because they are
part our national symbols.
