Nigerian One Thousand Naira Note ( ₦1000 or NGN1000) is a denomination of the Nigerian currency. The one thousand naira note was introduced in October 2005.[1] It is currently the highest Naira denomination.

On 12 October 2005, Olusegun Obasanjo launched the ₦1000 note.[2] A redesign, really just a color scheme change, was introduced in late 2022 which resulted in some cash scarcity and hardship for citizens.[3][4][5]
