Meanwhile, economic uncertainty continued to affect Nigeria’s productivity, new job creation, consumer spending and standard of living.

Even though, the current administration had promised to run an economic friendly policy, the effects of the new policies are yet to impact the economy.

Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Mr. Olayemi Cardoso, has said the decision of the bank to float the naira amid considerable public criticism was inevitable to “bring the official exchange rate closer to market reality”.

Cardoso said the disparity between the official and parallel rates had encouraged arbitrage and speculation, eroding trust in the market.

He made the comments while addressing members of the Harvard Club of Nigeria in Lagos on “Leadership in Challenging Times: Restoring Credibility, Building Trust, and Containing Inflation,” at the weekend in Lagos.

Cardoso insisted that without credibility, no policy, however well-intentioned, could succeed.

He said, “Credibility is earned by consistency. The decision to close this gap, while painful in the short term, sent a message to market participants that the CBN was committed to transparency and sound monetary policy.”

He pointed out that speculative trading had been minimised while stability was gradually returning to the currency markets.
