Supreme court stops old naira notes deadline implementation

The Supreme court has restrained the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) from enforcing the February 10 deadline for the use of N200, N500 and N1000 old Naira notes.

A seven-member panel led by Justice John Okoro gave the ruling
on an exparte application brought by three northern states of Kaduna, Kogi and Zamfara on Wednesday.

More to come.
