Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State has dared President Muhammadu Buhari on the naira redesign policy, saying the old notes remain legal tender in the state.
In his national broadcast early Thursday, Buhari had declared that old N500 and N1000 were no longer valid.
He had asked Nigerians to take them to the Central Bank and designated places.
But in his statewide address on Thursday night, El-Rufai said the notes remain legal tender until Supreme Court of Nigeria decides otherwise
