Money Heist: N100 Naira Note In A Netflix Movie Montage

You can clearly see Obafemi Awolowo's N100 face at 00:48- 00:50. The producers must have a reason why they have chosen the Naira for the montage instead for example of the Spanish Pesos. I felt quite proud though seeing the Naira note shown in the montage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yzh2cfbrxE
