The future of the Naira had been the focus of debate with economists postulating on its possible devaluation in 2020.
However, the CBN, in its first Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) in 2020, said that Naira devaluation was the way to go.
CBN Governor, Mr Godwin Emefiele, noted that the bank has sufficient foreign reserve to defend the Naira without choosing the option of devaluation.
