DSS Intercepts Bank Officials, Syndicates Selling New Naira Notes News
“It should be noted that the Service has ordered its commands and formations to further ensure that all persons and groups engaged in the illegal sale of the notes are identified. Therefore, anyone with useful information relating to this is encouraged to pass the same to the relevant authorities,” Afunanya stated.
Recall that the Central Bank of Nigeria had on Sunday extended the deadline for the swapping of old naira notes with the redesigned ones till February 10, 2023, with additional seven days. However, LEADERSHIP investigations revealed that some banks within the FCT have refused to pay either the new notes or the old ones.
This has made it difficult to transact businesses as some businesses like commercial motorists require physical cash to engage in their daily business.
