The Central Bank of Nigeria has been prohibited by the Federal Capital Territory High Court from continuing to use the previous naira note, as stated earlier.

On Monday, the High Court named the CBN, President Buhari, and several banks as defendants in a lawsuit with the filing number FCT/HC/CV/2234/2023.

The CBN was instructed not to extend the deadline while the lawsuit was being decided by the high court judge Eleojo Enenche.

This order is in effect pending the hearing and decision of the motion on notice.
