EKO HOT BLOG reports that the Federal Government of Nigeria has officially unveiled the redesigned naira notes to the public.
President Muhammadu Buhari unveiled the newly designed Naira notes at the Federal Executive Council meeting held in Abuja.
The unveiling today marks the first time in 19 years Nigeria will be redesigning its currency notes.
At a briefing after the ceremony before the Federal Executive Council meeting, the CBN governor debunked insinuations suggesting that the early unveiling of the new notes is a means to target some Nigerians.
Mr Emefiele appealed to members of the public, urging them to desist from making such speculation, adding that there is no need to perpetuate any such information.
He further warned Nigerians against holding the old notes, saying there is no going back on the January 31st, 2023 deadline to completely render the old notes useless.
The redesigned notes are in denominations of N1000, N500, and N200.
