CBN Gov, Emefiele explains features of new naira notes

New naira note, Godwin Emefiele.

The Central Bank of Nigeria Governor, Godwin Emefiele has explained the features of the redesigned notes.

Emefiele told State House Correspondents that it was in line with global best practices, noting that it was mandatory for the naira to be redesigned and re-issued every five to eight years.

According to him, it is regrettable that the naira has not been redesigned for the past 19 years owing to lack of political will from previous administrations.

"In the past, I have to confess that attempts by the CBN to redesign and re-issue the naira notes have been resisted. It is only President Muhammadu Buhari that has exhibited the courage to do so," he stated.

Emefiele said it was the mandate of the CBN, to redesign and re-issue the notes, stressing that the exercise would become a regular trend after five to eight years.

His words, "After today, the CBN will begin to redesign and reissue the naira for every five to eight years"

The CBN governor said that Nigeria has gone cashless and that security agencies would monitor people making withdrawal at the counter to know how much was withdrawn and also monitor the usage of the money.

Remember sreporterblog posted about this. Nigeria currency will be redesign.

He debunked insinuations that the policy was targeted at anyone, especially the political class.

He said that the CBN was determined in ensuring that the provision of the law on volume of money one should carry is followed.

"The world has moved to cashless economy and the CBN has moved to cashless economy. We will restrain the volume of cash someone will withdraw over the counter. We will follow up with the person's data to know the reason for such withdrawal," he said.

Commenting on calls for extension of time for the usage of old notes, the CBN boss said, "we will not go with people that want extension of time. From today, this currency that was reissued will become a legal tender."

Emefiele also said there is no local government area in the country where there is no bank agent, insisting that there is over one million points across the country that people should go and deposit the old notes.

The CBN boss also boasted that the new naira notes cannot be counterfeited because of the features in them.

We will establish more Passport Offices in Nigeria and abroad by February next year - FG

Nigeria’s Minister of Interior, Dr. Olubunmi Tunji Ojo, has said that the Federal Government has plans to ensure that several passport offices are opened around the country, as well as abroad, so that there will be easy collection of passports for Nigerians at home and in diaspora. Tunji-Ojo, said that the creation of multiple offices will make it easier to process passport requests and will reduce the demand of passports, and will in turn, reduce the corruption in which people exploit Nigerians in order to get passports for them. “On the issue of Nigerians in diaspora, we are working very hard on that. I will tell you the major problem. The major problem with diaspora is I will give you an example of Canada… Canada is the second biggest nation on earth in terms of land mass, only second to Russia. Now, Canada has only one passport office, that is unacceptable. And of course, government might not be able to afford creating passport offices all over and whatever, but we have to look at

The Voyage By Professor Moyo Okediji.

THE VOYAGE By Professor Moyo Okediji. About 30 years ago, I slept at the Murtala Muhammed Airport for four days. No, I was not a homeless vagabond. I had bought the Nigeria Airways ticket to fly to the United States for a one-year sabbatical leave. But when I arrived at the airport, I realized that my ticket was not honored, though I had bought it legitimately. Whenever a plane was about to leave Lagos for New York, the NA officials posted a manifest list, and my name was not there. They would ask me to wait for the next list. This drama of “Your name is not yet listed, wait for the next manifest list” continued for four days. I couldn’t leave the airport and return home because I lived in Ile Ife, and had bid my people goodbye for one year. They all expected I would be in NY already. I was therefore forced to sleep by the door of the NA office at the airport, waiting for the release of the manifest list with my name on it. I was not alone. There were hundreds of stranded passen
