Abuja – The National Council of State, on Friday, in Abuja backed the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on its new naira redesign policy.

The Minister of Justice and Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, announced this to correspondents after the council’s meeting at Ado Rock, Abuja.

However, the council, advised the CBN to either intensify the printing of new notes or recirculate the old ones to ease the hardship being faced by Nigerians.

Malami said the council received briefings from the chairman of INEC, the IGP and the CBN governor.

“The two major resolutions that were driven, arriving from the deliberations of the Council, are one, that we are on course as far as election is concerned and we are happy with the level of preparations by INEC and the institutions.

“Two, relating to the naira re-designed policy, the policy stands, but then the Council agreed that there is need for aggressive action on the part of the Central Bank, as it relates to the implementation of the policy by way of ensuring adequate provision being made with regard to the supply of the naira in the system,” the AGF said.
