Buhari Receives Emefiele In Aso Rock After Supreme Court Order

 

President Muhammadu Buhari has again met with Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele in Aso Rock, Abuja.

 

According to Channels Television, this is coming hours after the Supreme Court ruling of Wednesday stopping the February 10 deadline for the validity of three old naira notes.

 

Recall that a seven-man panel of the Supreme Court led by Justice John Okoro, in a unanimous ruling, granted the interim injunction after an ex parte filed by Kogi, Kaduna and Zamfara state governments.

 

The highest court also held that the Federal Government and the apex bank must not continue with the deadline pending the determination of the hearing on February 15.

 

The outcome of the meeting is yet to be known but the visit by the apex bank chief is in connection to the ruling of the Supreme Court.
