Also, on November 21, the federal government had filed an application before the Supreme Court seeking an extension for old Naira notes to remain in circulation.
LEADERSHIP reports that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) had also recently said old and new Naira currencies remained legal tender indefinitely.
