The Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Olayemi Cardoso has engaged in a thought-provoking conversation with Nobel Prize-winning economist, Dr. James Robinson, the Reverend Richard L. Pearson Professor at the University of Chicago and Director of the Pearson Institute for the Study and Resolution of Global Conflicts in the United States.
According to a statement on the apex bank’s official X handle today, the high-level discussion spotlighted Nigeria’s monetary policy direction.
Cardoso reaffirmed the CBN’s steadfast commitment to transparency, consistency, and restoring public confidence through orthodox monetary policy reforms.
The fireside chat also emphasised the CBN’s global reach and strategic collaboration with the Nigerian diaspora, as members of the CBN Board and Monetary Policy Committee — Mr. Robert Agbede, Prof. Melvin Ayogu, and Dr. Aloysius Ordu — were in attendance.
