New naira notes: Rush as long queues of customers flood banks

Long queues of bank customers have thronged Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) of banks at the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to collect the new naira notes.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) correspondent, who monitored banks in Abuja on Friday, reports that many customers were seen on queues collecting the new notes from the machines.

NAN also reports that the CBN had given Jan. 31 as the deadline for the use of the old N1,000, N500 and N200 naira notes.
