Protesters have surrounded the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) headquarters and the office of the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) in response to a Supreme Court ruling on the deadline for the use of old naira notes.
On Wednesday, a seven-member panel of the Supreme Court led by John Okoro temporarily restrained the federal government from restricting the use of old naira notes after February 10.
The governors of Kaduna, Kogi, and Zamfara states filed the ex parte application.
Obed Agu, one of the protesters' leaders, told reporters in Abuja that President Muhammadu Buhari should issue an executive order keeping the aforementioned date as the deadline for the use of old naira notes.
