New Deadline Set for Elimination of Old Naira Notes
The House of Representatives has informed Central bank of Nigeria (CBN) to start eliminate old naira notes and to introduce the new N200, N500 and N1000 notes. They urge CBN to give to instruct banks to only make use of the new notes for transactions in order to prevent the circulation of old notes. This decision was passed after a motion by Mr Victor Ogene.

The Supreme Court has now set a deadline of December 31, 2024 after which the old notes will no longer be accepted anywhere. The House has referred the matter to its Committee on Banking Regulations for further action.
