The new naira notes will be unveiled by President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday, according to Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor Godwin Emefiele.
Emefiele informed the media after the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting in Abuja that the unveiling would take place at 10am.
During the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting, he claimed, it will happen in the Council Chambers.
Emefiele declared that the CBN would not postpone the timetable for the official introduction of the new naira notes until January 31, 2023.
The CBN Governor expressed gratitude to Buhari for consistently standing up for the central bank, to the Senate for doing the same, and to the security services, particularly the EFCC, for ensuring the program’s smooth transfer. You can read more of such stories at Credible News.
