This study adopted the descriptive survey research design. In this particular study, the population consists of, and covers all the stakeholders in Nigeria using selected residents in Ogun State as a case study. A sample of 100 residents were drawn as sample for the study. The cluster random sampling method was adopted for this study. To substantiate the purpose and importance of this research, both primary and secondary data sources were examined. The questionnaire (NARISQ) was structured into close ended questions, having two major parts: A and B. Data collected were analysed with frequency count and percentages (%) and charts while the hypotheses were tested with Chi-square (X2) statistical technique. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (IBM SPSS® version 23) was used to test the hypotheses. The content validity of this instrument was carried out by my project supervisor in the Lead City University, Ibadan, Oyo State. The researcher personally administered the questionnaire to the business operators in their various business locations within the study area. The result showed that there is a significant effect of currency redesign on cost of living and inflation rate, micro and small business and socio-economic outcomes of the vulnerable populations (low-income households, traders, artisans) in Ogun State, Nigeria. It was therefore recommended that there should be extended validity period, to sustain the existing old notes as legal tender and gradually remove the old notes through the banking system to avoid the economic hardship that is associated with inability to purchase goods and services by the non-banked population in the informal sector.
