Some commercial sex workers in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), have decried low patronage in their business due to the scarcity of Naira notes.
Some of them who spoke to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja on Sunday, said the scarcity of the notes was a threat and had crippled their businesses.
They said that although the currency swap policy was commendable, the current mode of implementation was a challenge to their business.
Miss Alexandra Tricia (pseudo name), a commercial sex worker, said her customers had reduced drastically due to the current ‘no cash syndrome’.
She described the development as both frustrating and slow for the business.
”The business is no longer booming like before because there is no cash anywhere.
”Some of my customers will come and after negotiations, they will ask if I have an account so they can transfer the money to me.
”When I give them the account number, they will press their phones and tell me that they have transferred some money.
”The worst part of it is that you will see their own alert in their phones but most times you will not get your own alert.
”They will want you to start the service immediately without you getting an alert and when you refuse, some of them will start making trouble.
