After many months of procrastination, the senate on Thursday confirmed the two nominees of President Muhammadu Buhari as Central Bank of Nigeria deputy governors.
The new CBN Governors are Aisha Ahmed and Edward Adams.
Also confirmed were the three nominees as members if the Monetary Policy Committee ( MPC).
The non confirmation of the deputy governors and members of the MPC have been linked to the failure of the committee to meet since the beginning of this year.
The CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele however pleaded for their senate confirmation even as he assured it would not affect the apex bank’s monetary policies as was being insinuated.
