Deposit old naira notes before deadline, CBN reiterates

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has charged Nigerians to ensure they deposit the old N200, N500 and N1000 notes in their various banks before the Jan. 31 deadline.

Mrs Olufolake Ogundero, the CBN Branch Controller in Oyo State, gave the charge on Thursday during the sensitisation programme held across markets in the state.

Recall that the CBN had introduced newly designed N200, N500 and N1000 notes with a directive that all old notes be out of circulation by Jan. 31.
