Naira redesign: The protesters at CBN's headquarters demand Emefiele's arrest and resignation.

According to a report by Sahara Reporter, the demonstrators, who were seen at the headquarters of the top bank waving banners, claimed that Emefiele had subjected Nigerians to unjust hardships that had purportedly resulted in the deaths of many Nigerians. According to reports, the group pledged to occupy the apex bank's space until their demands were satisfied.

Emefiele must be removed, "CBN Now Bureau De Change," "Emefiele Bring Out The Names of Those You Gave Our Money To," "Where Is The 500 Billion You Cried on Tape Is Missing?" "What Happened To Anchor Borrowers Program," and many more statements could be seen on their placards.

George Uboh, the protest's organizer, told to press, "We are demanding that Godwin Emefiele, in his capacity as Governor of CBN, should make the new naira notes available. The Supreme Court declared in its judgement that the new naira notes policy has caused the Nigerian people undue suffering, thus he must also come out here to address the crowd. He emphasized that genocide may be committed without the use of weapons and that the CBN's monetary policy action amounted to genocide.

He labeled the policy as "insensitive" under Emefiele's administration and said that their protest was motivated by the Supreme Court ruling ordering the CBN to release the new naira notes.

Uboh stated that they have a well-rehearsed plan to demand Emefiele's detention and trial for crimes against humanity by the International Criminal Court.

He went on to say that having two legal tender systems operating simultaneously in a nation was treasonous and bemoaned how the strategy had destroyed the nation's small enterprises.

To prevent any potential breakdown of law and order, security personnel, including the Nigerian Army, the Police, and Department of State Services personnel, are said to have ringed the CBN building.
