Reacting to reports of long queues of people waiting for hours for their turn to deposit old notes and get new ones, triggering public anger and opposition’s criticism, President Buhari reiterated that the currency changes were aimed at people hoarding illicit funds and not the common man, and that it had become necessary to prevent counterfeits, corruption, and terrorist funding.

 

In a statement signed by the Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, this, he assured, will stabilise and strengthen the economy.
