The People’s Democratic Party presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has asked the Central Bank of Nigeria not to grant a further extension after the February 10 deadline for naira swap.
This, he said, had become imperative to ensure the purpose and objective of initiating the redesigning of the currency are not destroyed.
In a statement released in Abuja yesterday from his campaign office, Atiku further urged the CBN to consider printing more currency notes to eliminate the current scarcity among ordinary people, especially rural dwellers who need them for their daily transactions.
