Are ATMs Going Out of Fashion in Nigeria? by Elvis Eromosele - ITREALMS
Commentary@ITREALMS ... making leadership SENSE with digital news!
Nigeria is a cash-driven economy. Yet, today, when cash is needed, the default option isn’t the bank’s ATM but the nearest Point-of-Sale (POS) agent. ATMs, once the backbone of convenience banking, now sit idle, often empty, gathering dust, while POS agents offer the only real alternative for cash withdrawals. In a cash-driven economy, ATMs have become extremely unreliable for Nigerians needing cash.
This shift begs several critical questions. Are ATMs going out of fashion in Nigeria? Is the massive infrastructure investment in ATMs now a waste? And most importantly, why do ATMs rarely have cash since the infamous CBN naira redesign policy?

Suspected fraudsters disguised as assassins to defraud journalist, demand N20 million as saving grace - ITREALMS
ITREALMS ... making leadership SENSE with digital news!
Suspected fraudsters disguising as assassins have threatened to eliminate the Founder of Penpushing Media, Dimeji Kayode-Adedeji, with an option to spare him if he could cough out N20million as saving grace.
The gang led by a member who identified himself as Femi Poly, at about 7.30am put a phone call across to the journalist that they had been assigned to eliminate him, but had a rethink on carrying out the operation.
‘We have your photograph, we are assigned by somebody close to you to kill you, but we observed that you are an elderly man, and decided not to carry out the assignment, but to reach out to you if you can offer us N20million’, the suspects said.
The gang operating with mobile phone numbers +2349036869898, +2348080858130 when asked who was their sponsor and what was the reason given to them to warrant the assignment to finish the journalist, said he would be provided the information after paying them the N20million demanded.
‘The person is your close associate, who told us he had issues with you, but can you keep it to yourself if we reveal the identity, which we shall do that after payment of the N20 million’, the suspects said.
When the journalist told them he has no such amount, the gang said they would reduce the amount to N500, 000, and after telling them he could also not afford such an amount, the suspects further reduced it to N150, 000.
The journalist again told them that he could not also raise the N150,000 immediately, and that he had N10,000 as at the time of the conversation, the gang said he should send the N10, 000, as part-payment, and immediately they provided an access bank account with number 0002884692 with the name *Aminu Adamu*.
Meanwhile, the journalist, however, said he has informed the police of the development adding that as at the time of filing this report police authorities have commenced investigation into the matter.
