The recently-unveiled commemorative N100 bank note will be launched by CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele in Abuja on Friday, December 19 and would go into circulation afterwards, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has announced. The Apex bank added that the new design retains the portrait of Chief Obafemi Awolowo both in the ink and also in a paper as a shadow image. "There is a spark feature of a rolling manila bar, which was the instrument of transaction during the slave trade era. At the back side of the currency is the introduced Quick Response Code (QRC), a digital communication feature that highlights and sources all the information about the centenary. With the QRC application, the barcode on the banknote can be scanned by users to read a brief history of Nigeria." It added.

NICE ONE. At least the new money is not having those arabic features, that nigerias don't know about. Please change the rest of the currency that has arabic words.
