Redesigned Naira Notes: Herders demand extension of deadline to December 2023
The Kulen Allah Cattle Rearers Association of Nigeria, (KACRAN), has called on the federal government to sack the Central Bank Governor, Godwin Emefiele and extend the period for the withdrawal of the old currency to December 2023.
National President of the Association, Khalil Mohammed Bello made the call in a statement issued to newsmen on Tuesday.
Khalil said the call became imperative following untold hardships the CBN Governor has plunged Nigerians and the nation’s financial system into, alleging confusion over the re-designing of some old currencies and the introduction of the new naira notes.
“The failure of CBN to adequately provide sufficient new naira notes for circulation is a cause of concern to KACRAN because this has unleashed untold and unnecessary hardships on numerous Nigerians particularly the rural dwellers and our pastoralists.
“With only a few days left for the total abandonment of the old currencies, many of our members who abandoned their livestock to seek to change their old currencies are already suffering unimaginable inconveniences and financial losses”, he lamented.
KACRAN’s National President alleged that the CBN governor single-handedly hatched and implemented this controversial and unpopular policy to the ridicule of the Minister of Finance.
“It is also unfortunate that the CBN Governor, went ahead hurriedly to implement this policy without making adequate provision for the new currency notes
