PHOTOs: ‘Pure water’ seller moves with PoS over Naira scarcity

A Nigerian woman has been seen employing a curious strategy to sell her sachet water.

In a viral post shared on social media on Sunday, the sachet water seller was seen holding a Point of Sale machine while hawking her wares.

The scarcity of the newly redesigned N1,000, N200 and N500 notes in the country has been causing hardship to the people.

Last week, the Central Bank of Nigeria reshared a video showing a sugarcane seller positioning a POS machine on his wheelbarrow, saying, “There are no boundaries to going cashless!”
