Naira redesign suit : “We don’t want to be use as escape goat ” says S’Court

Vows to hear Naira redesign suit today

The Supreme Court of Nigeria said it must hear today the suit filed by Kaduna, Kogi and Zamfara States challenging Central Bank of Nigeria CBN demonetisation policy because it did want to be used as escape goat.

Presiding Justice of a full panel of the apex court Justice John Okoro announced on Monday at the resumed hearing of the matter.

According to Okoro, “We don’t want a situation where the judiciary will be an escape goat.” We will hear and deliver our judgment.
