President Muhammadu Buhari will unveil the designed Naira notes tomorrow Wednesday, November 23, 2022.
The Governor of the Central Bank, Godwin Emefiele announced this during the Central Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee monthly meeting in Abuja on Tuesday.
It could be recalled that the CBN Governor had announced in October that the apex bank would issue redesigned N200, N500, and N1,000 notes, effective December 15, 2022,
However, he has disclosed that CBN won’t wait till December anymore for the unveiling of the new notes.
Emefiele said, “For information, indeed, we are no longer waiting till December 15th to unveil and begin to release the new notes.
“By the special grace of God, tomorrow, which is the 23rd of November 2022, the President has graciously accepted to unveil the new currencies and the new currencies will be unveiled tomorrow at the Federal Executive Chamber by 10am.”
He said the deadline for returning the old Naira notes to commercial banks in exchange for newly designed ones would not be shifted.
