The Central Bank of Nigeria has reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining monetary and financial system stability, saying it will continue to pursue policies aimed at controlling inflation, ensuring price stability and supporting sustainable economic growth.
The assurance was contained in a statement issued by the apex bank on Thursday following a one-day stakeholders’ fair held in Bauchi to promote financial inclusion, improve public awareness of the bank’s operations and obtain feedback on its policies and services.
Speaking at the event, the Acting Director of Corporate Communications and Investor Relations, Mrs Hakama Sidi-Ali, said the CBN remained committed to delivering on its statutory mandate through sound monetary policies.
Represented by the CBN Branch Controller in Bauchi, Michael Dalyop, Sidi-Ali said, “The reforms introduced under the current leadership are beginning to yield measurable results, including improved macroeconomic stability, easing inflation and stronger confidence in the foreign exchange market.”
She noted that the stakeholders’ fair was one of the bank’s strategic initiatives aimed at improving the lives and livelihoods of Nigerians through enhanced financial literacy and wider access to alternative payment channels.
