President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is thinking of extending the validity of old naira notes.
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) had redesigned the naira last year and set a deadline that was extended after outcry.
However, ruling in a suit filed by some aggrieved governors, the Supreme Court shifted the deadline to December 2023.
But in an Advisory Report released by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Policy Advisory Council chaired by Senator Tokunbo Abiru, a December 2024 deadline is said to be considered for the old naira notes.
