The Economic Assessment Unit of the Civil Society Central
Coordinating Council, CSCCC, has said the Governor of the Central Bank of
Nigeria, CBN) Godwin Emefiele, prepared grounds for the economic stability of
the new administration of President Bola Tinubu.
The group made the claims in a statement reacting to the
honour conferred on him by the outgone President Muhammadu Buhari.
In the statement signed by the Head of the Unit, Ihuoma
Adaelu, CSCCC described the CBN governor as a pragmatic and transformational
leader, who has fearlessly encouraged innovations for economic development.
According to the group, Emefiele has created change that
will shape the future of Nigeria’s economy and as well prepared grounds for the
new administration’s economic stability.
It said: “Because Emefiele’s vision and mission over the
years are in tandem with those of the apex bank, he has been focused, fearless
even in the face of unwarranted and scathing criticisms. He neither shied away
from his duties nor allowed emotions to cloud his judgment.
“Under his leadership, The CBN has become one of the most
efficient and effective world central banks in promoting and sustaining
economic development.
“CBN has been on the spot since the recent policy on the
redesign of the naira but Emefiele has remained focused in the face of
unwarranted criticisms, even by those who do not have a proper understanding of
the modern concept of central banking”.
