New Naira notesÂ
By Our Reporter
The Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria is liaising with the Body of Banks CEOs to address the
current challenges. As such, the banks would continue to remain open to serve the public as long as
it is safe to do so.
The safety and security of staff of banks is of paramount importance. Hence, where there is security
challenge, the Management of banks have been empowered to take proactive measures to close
operations in such location and inform the Central Bank of Nigeria. Therefore, the safety concerns
being expressed in various quarters are already being addressed.
Banks will continue to ensure that adequate security are in place to protect staff and customers whilst
safeguarding the assets of the banks in contending with the current challenge. Consequently, we
appeal to the general public to remain calm and eschew any act of violence as the banking industry
remain resolute and committed to finding ways to address all the related issues.
We indeed appreciate you for your continued patience and understanding
