Nigerians continue to trade with old naira notes despite expiration of CBN’s February 10 deadline

Nigerians continue to carry out transactions with the old naira notes despite the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) deadline on the use of the old currency which expired on February 10.

Many Nigerians believe that the Supreme Court’s ruling on a suit filed by some All Progressives Congress (APC) on the currency redesign will determine the fate of the old naira notes.

The apex court will rule on the suit filed by the Kaduna, Kogi, and Zamfara State governments challenging the redesign of the naira notes and the deadline for the currency swap on February 15.
