According to him, the activities of the apex bank can turn around the economic challenges Nigerians grapple with with the right monetary policies.
He urged the leadership of CBN to do everything to reduce the economic hardship in the country.
“The Bank’s activities have a massive impact on the lives of Nigerians, and many people often do not know the impact of a Central Bank’s work until a Central Bank fails. I urged the new leadership at the CBN to work persistently at driving down the rate, which had severely impacted the wealth of individuals,” Sanusi stated.
Recall that Nigeria’s inflation had continued to rise with the September figure, which stood at 26.72 per cent.
