Just go to your bank and make inquiry. Or just walk into any bank preferably First Bank and GTB and make inquiry.
Happy investing.

Basic economic law of demand and supply.
If investors offer funds more than the government needs, the T-bills rate will start falling.
If the government needs funds more than investors can offer, the T-bills rate will start rising.

yea go on and give it a trial. Notwitstanding the drop in yield, it still remains the best money market investment to me. I invest , take my interest upfront, and still get a rate far better than any Fixed deposit; yet witout any withholding tax!

take my interest upfront - what do you mean by this, can you be paid interest before your TB matures
yet witout any withholding tax! - you are saying no WHT, but what does the bank charge for running investment for you.

YES in Tbills You can opt to take your interest upfront!
There is no withholding tax (WHT) in Tbills unlike in Fixed deposits where you also have to pay 10% of your interest as WHT back to the government!
The only charge for TBills transaction is 0.125% of the amount. For N1M this amounts to N1,250= only

If stock market spiral down rate on treasury bill goes up, if stock market spiral up rate on treasury bill goes down. It has inverse relationship based on investors emotion. It will always be a good market for risk averters like me.

Nigeria plans to sell 164.88 billion naira ($1.05 billion) worth of treasury bills with maturities ranging from three months to one year on Jan 24, at its twice-monthly auction, the central bank said on Wednesday.

The bank said it will auction 34.88 billion naira in 91-day bills, 50 billion naira in 182-day notes and 80 billion naira in 364-day paper, using Dutch auction system.

Nigeria, Africa's top energy producer, issues treasury bills regularly as part of monetary control measures to help lenders manage their liquidity and control the money supply. ($1 = 157.15 naira) (Reporting by Oludare Mayowa; Editing by Tim Cocks

Meanwhile lets start getting ready for the secondary bonds market that is about to be started on the NSE. At the moment only banks have been enjoying the excellent yields of up to 16% that some of these FGN bonds provide.
