Amidst the ongoing Naira scarcity, angry customers have chased POS operator in their resident after she charged exorbitant fees.
In a video circulating online, a man could be seen venting after learning that they would have to pay N4,000 to collect N10,000.
As the Naira scarcity bites harder, POS operators happens to be on the winning side as they increase their charges on every amount.
The video showed that customers trying withdraw money but were discouraged by the enormous fee. They surrounded a lady working as a POS operator and told her that she would not be allowed to work.
The young lady, however, explained that she was only acting on the instructions of her employer and she did not solely decide on the N4k charge.
But the customers decided to dismantle the lady’s POS umbrella and table, so she was forced to walk away.
The vocal man who challenged her could be heard continually expressing anger at the level of exploitation people are subjected to in the country.
