According to dependable sources in the apex bank, commercial bank headquarters had been contacted to arrange for the collection of the old notes that the banks had returned to the Central Bank for recirculation.
The old naira notes that were deposited with the CBN must be retrieved by banks, according to the instruction. The source predicted that the nation would be flooded with naira notes by the end of the week.
It was discovered that the old naira notes may still be returned to bank branches today.
