Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, on Thursday promised to supply commercial banks with plenty of funds to address the new Naira note scarcity in Kogi State.<\/p>\n

Kogi CBN Branch Controller, Ahmed Sule, made the vow while speaking with NAN in his office in Lokoja.<\/p>\n

Recall that protesters had on Wednesday picketed some commercial banks over purported non-compliance with the apex bank\u2019s directive to make the new notes available to citizens across the nation.<\/p>\n

According to Sule, the scarcity of the new Naira might have resulted in some commercial banks not opening for customers on Wednesday and Thursday.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI wish to announce to you that we\u2019re expecting our stock of the New Naira notes very soon for distribution to the commercial banks operating here in Kogi.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re aware of the difficult times our fellow citizens are in right now, and we expect the [commercial] banks to help ameliorate the people\u2019s sufferings by dispensing as we so directed them.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll soon invite them [commercial banks] to come for their allocations as we\u2019re expecting it today, being Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we give the banks is weekly allocations and a very substantial one for the week.\u201d<\/p>\n
