The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has said that it never issued a fresh directive to commercial banks to obey last Friday’s judgment of the Supreme Court ordering the circulation of the old naira notes alongside the new ones until December 31.
Isa Abdulmumin, the spokesman for the central bank of Nigeria said the apex has not issued an official statement.
“Both the old and new notes are legal tender, and banks are currently issuing them to customers. Nigerians should not reject any note, whether old or new,” a senior management source also said.
