Amidst the cash crunch ravaging the country, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has debunked ordering Deposit Money Banks to collect old N500 and N1,000 notes from customers.

Reports doing the rounds on social media claimed Nigerians have been told to deposit their old N500 and N1000 notes to banks.
