Nigeria’s Supreme Court Adjourns Currency Redesign Case Till March 3

Nigeria's Supreme Court has adjourned a case instituted by state governors against the Federal Government challenging the implementation of Nigeria's naira redesign policy to March 3.


The Central Bank of Nigeria last year unveiled the policy, swapping old bank notes for new ones to help reduce money in circulation, fight corruption and promote a cashless economy.


The policy, which has led to cash crunch across the country, bringing hardship to millions of Nigerians, has been a major issue in the lead-up to Nigeria's election on Saturday.
