He however, went further to share a statement that was released by the Central Bank of Nigeria debunking the report.
Part of the statement says;
“The attention of the Central Bank of Nigeria has been drawn to certain instances of misinterpretation or misrepresentation of its biennial publication on Monetary, Credit, Foreign Trade and Exchange Policy Guidelines published on September 17, 2024. In response, the CBN has temporarily withdrawn the document to minimize risk of any further misrepresentation”.
