Currency Swap: Emefiele In Daura To Meet Buhari

Amid agitation for the extension of Tuesday’s deadline for swapping of old Naira notes for the newly redesigned ones, the governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, has arrived Duara, Katsina State, for a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari.

The President has been in his country home since arriving last Wednesday for the commissioning of projects executed by the Governor Aminu Masari administration.
