NYLS expressed their opinion in a statement signed by the Ohanaeze Secretary-General and head of the Coalition’s secretariat, Nwada Ike Chiamaka.
It read:
“We, ethnic youth leaders across the country, are very elated over the decision of the CBN under the leadership of Dr Godwin Emefiele to reduce ATM withdrawal charges.
“We are indeed glad that under Emefiele, the CBN has been showing that it is not only people’s friendly but more importantly, youths friendly.
“We have no iota of doubt in us that Emefiele can aptly be described as people’s governor over this very laudable decision.
However their praises is unfounded as CBN only republished guidelines on ATM and electronic charges first made public in 2019.
CBN lament as fake eNaira Twitter account deceives Nigerians
Meanwhile, Legit.ng had earlier reported that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has distanced itself from fake eNaira twitter account, @enaira_cbdc, which claims that the apex Bank is offering intervention funds to Nigerians.
The fake twitter handle said the financial regulator is disbursing 30 billion eNaira currency to Nigerians that sign up and provide their eNaira wallet details through the link @enaira_cbdc posted.
The twitter handle has attracted several followers while disguising to be an account owned by the central bank, and the monetary authority has warned Nigerians not to fall victim of the perpetrators trap.
