CBN Sticks to Presidential Directive to Reissue only 200 Naira Old Banknotes.
The attention of the Central Bank of Nigeria has been drawn to a FAKE PRESS RELEASE.
Purported to have emanated from the Bank to the effect that President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the reissuance and release of old N500 and N1000 notes as legal tender in the country.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Central Bank of Nigeria reiterates that in line with the directives of Mr. President, only N200 old notes are to be reissued and to circulate concurrently with the new notes.

Please be guided accordingly.
