President Muhammadu Buhari has reappointed the governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emiefele, for a second and final term of five years.
A letter for the tenure renewal was signed by Buhari on Wednesday and has now been sent to the senate for confirmation.
The CBN Act stipulates that the senate must confirm the nomination of any of its governor before it can take effect.
The president said the CBN governor’s reappointment will be for another five years.
Mr Buhari said he hoped the request would receive the usual expeditious consideration of the Senate.
