Where are new naira notes – Charly Boy raises alarm

Veteran Nigerian singer, Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, has called out the Central Bank of Nigeria Governor, Godwin Emefiele, over the low circulation of the new Naira notes.

Recall that President Muhammadu Buhari and CBN announced the introduction of the newly redesigned N1000, N500, and N200 Naira notes into circulation across the country in 2022.

However, this brought about scarcity of the naira notes and chaos, violence in various areas of the country.

However, the Supreme Court in March ruled that the old version of the Naira notes shall continue to be legal tender with the new Naira notes until December 31, 2023.

In a Twitter post, Charly Boy raised concerns over the scarcity of the new naira notes. He stated that the old notes are the only ones being circulated.

“I nor dey see new naira notes again oo.”

“Why why why? Can somebori tell me why?”
