How to identify the redesigned Naira notes

In a bid to save Nigerians from falling victims to fake Naira notes, the apex bank of the country, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), has released the security features of the redesigned Naira notes.

There had been growing concerns among Nigerians about the possibility of duplicitous elements taking advantage of the situation by counterfeiting the new notes. This release of the security features, however, comes as a relief for everyone.
