New Naira Notes: Godwin Emefiele Appears Before House of Reps

Godwin Emefiele, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has appeared before the House of Representatives.

Emefiele appeared before the ad hoc committee of the House on Tuesday to discuss the cashless policy and deadline for the replacement of old currency notes.

Emefiele, who was supposed to appear before the Committee last week, failed to do stating he was out of the country with President Muhammadu Buhari.

The House threatened to invoke the provisions of section 89(1)(d) of the Constitution by issuing a warrant of arrest today to compel him to appear.

The CBN Governor, who appeared with some of his assistants, went into a brief Executive session with members of the committee.
