The bank plans to offer 32.43 billion naira in three-month paper and 30 billion naira of a six-month bill. Results of the auction will be announced on the same day.
The central bank issues treasury bills twice a month to help the government to finance its budget deficit, curb money supply growth and provide an avenue for lenders to manage liquidity.
