Nigerians have called on acting president, Yemi Osinbajo, to sack the CBN governor, Godwin Emefiele, and the minister of finance, Kemi Adeosun, for failing to fix the worrisome state of foreign exchange rate.
Some Nigerians have accused the CBN governor, Godwin Emefiele and the minister of finance, Kemi Adeosun, of handling the naira poorly.
Those demanding the sack of Godwin Emefiele and Mrs Kemi Adeosun, asked Osinbajo to act immediately to save the naira from further losing its value.
The group made the demand in reaction to the call by state governors on the Godwin Emefiele to do something immediately to reduce the gap between inter-bank and the parallel market rates.
The governors made the call at the National Economic Council (NEC) meeting in Abuja on Thursday, February 16, which was presided over by acting president, Yemi Osinbajo.
The woes of the naira dipped further to a new record low at parallel market as it now trades at N516 per United States dollar on Thursday, February 16.
Some Nigerians who seem to have lost confidence in the ability of CBN governor and the minister of finance to salvage the nation’s currency are demanding that both of them be sacked immediately before President Buhari returns to the country.
