The 36 state governors have invited the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emiefele, for a meeting on Thursday over issues relating to the new naira notes introduced by the CBN.

Medicine after death

They keep lying to is. where is CBG now?

So you guys can discuss on how to change the mountains of naira notes in your possession.

Leemao!

Oh because he's more Smart like you by not surrendering to your stupid Dss oppressions ,. That's why you want to meet him.... Shame to Dss Nigeria for being so cheap against the national interest....

All Nigeria youths and NBA association should join us all this governor must not have their way this time we must get it right now is the time

I hear say na states governors Carry all the new money when CBN governor print last year , so him feel used and dumped na why him won pay them back. No law for this country o , pple just Dey do as them like . I no fit wait for PO to come stop all these nonsense

What's wrong with Nigerian Governments

😂😆😂

They should let him extend the deadline, because as we are writing now, banks are still paying out the old naira notes to us

I told someone that they will extend deadline to end of this year

No going back !!!

President Buhari and Emefiele are trying to force Nigeria to be the poorest country in the world. Pls NASS and the GOVERNORS where are you?

To meet I thought he's on wanted list..

Governors want to beg for extension of the deadline date cos they all packed old notes for sharing, campaign & selflessness.

They've stockpiled money. No where to hide.😧

I don't want to use that new naira o..... I wish they can allow use old and new

Allegation of terrorism financing, meeting with the governors, very soon faith-based organizations go join. Ladies and gentlemen, there goes the different faces of corruption in naija......who go fix this country, go risk him life. Remembering past heroes like Dora.

Emiefele if u compromise & extend the deadline,U'll regret this missed opportunity to have done right by Nigeria.. Governors are not financial institutions why the pressure

Where would they find him now?

He should not back down

Governor's in Nigeria always believed they are God, even National assembly demons of corruption.

What are they even meeting him for? To supply them new currency or what? In developed climes no government expenditure is through cash except petty cash which is often few thousands. But this governors will be withdrawing billions in cash. Nigerian youth wake up!

The naira is circulating well and no need for a day extension. Emefiele shouldn't give in to their vote buying plans

He should be arrested and prosecuted for terrorism financing and money laundering, not holding meetings with governors.

We don't need any extension, even if you have one trillion, they must have finished counting it by now. Because they have ulterior motive. The youth should be on the street giving cenbank moral support. This policy will cut their stolen wealth by at least 50%. Up Cbn!

No going back January 31st must not be changed 💯

The last heist season 8 Emefiele return to the country untouched backed by the military and governors while all the money to be taken out of the CBN acct is being printed, stolen and withdrawn....The Citizens say it's PO and it's our last tenure operation clear the acct.

Please they should meet him after elections

They could meet him after elections...

So much political interference

They will increase the date line
