The CBN on Wednesday announced that it would start circulating newly redesigned N100, N200, N500 and N1000 naira notes from December 15.CBN governor, Godwin Emefiele, said the move was to counter terrorism financing, hoarding of banknotes by members of the public, with statistics showing that over 85 per cent of monies in circulation were outside the vaults of commercial banks.

So there is no synergy between the CBN and MoF?

A government without synergy is taking us to no good destination.

Did you informed us about Covid 19 funds

Akwai de wata a ƙasa.

Zainab is being clever by half...It would seem that the policy has roped her and some of her ilk..Nowhere to hide stolen money..they will be forced to spend it when they can't see dollars to buy.The policy has pros and cons - like 2 sides of a coin.i'd say let's take our chances

Personal reservations!

If the Finance Minister or Ministry has no stash of N illegally hoarded in any place then she needs to fear nothing.Currency matters are within the purview of the CBN and not the MoF.

They (the government) did what we need less and not that we need most
