President Tinubu acknowledged the significance of a stable and effective currency system for economic growth and stability while criticizing the naira redesign as a harsh and premature strategy when speaking to a broad gathering that included government officials, dignitaries, and civilians.
He said: “Monetary policy needs thorough house cleansing. The Central Bank must work towards a unified exchange rate. This will direct funds away from arbitrage into meaningful investment in the plant, equipment and jobs that power the real economy.
“Interest rates need to be reduced to increase investment and consumer purchasing in ways that sustain the economy at a higher level. Whatever merits it had in concept, the currency swap was too harshly applied by the CBN given the number of unbanked Nigerians.”
