Court Suspends CBN’s Feb 10 Deadline For Old Naira Notes Swap
The Supreme Court of Nigeria on Wednesday restrained the Federal Government from continuing with the full implementation of the demonetization policy.
Three northern states, Kaduna, Kogi and Zamfara, had, in a motion ex-parte filed on February 3rd, prayed the apex court to stop the Central Bank of Nigeria’s naira redesign policy.
A 7-man panel of the Supreme Court led by Justice JOHN OKORO, in a unanimous ruling, granted an interim injunction restraining the Federal Government, CBN, commercial banks from implementing the February 10 deadline for the old 200, 500 and 1000 Naira notes to stop being a legal tender.
The court further held that the FG, CBN, and commercial banks must not continue with the deadline pending the determination of a notice on notice in respect of the issue on February 15.
