Sanusi Says No To Imf: Questions their advice by Justcash(m): 6:34pm On Feb 21, 2011
Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN ) Governor Lamido Sanusi said on Monday he did not believe that the naira was over-valued and criticised advice from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) which last week recommended greater exchange rate flexibility. "We do not believe that the naira is over-valued ,  We do not believe that at a time when the oil price is going up and output is going up we should be losing the value of our currency," Sanusi told CNBC Africa television. 

"We also do not think that it makes sense, if the IMF is concerned about inflation, to ask a country that is import dependent to devalue its currency ,  So the advice given by the IMF, frankly, is not based on sound economic logic."

The IMF issued a statement last Thursday after its latest round of consultations with Nigeria, in which it noted foreign reserves had been falling and speculation against the naira could "become intense" if the depletion continued. Sanusi said the International Monetary Fund had gone ahead and published the advice without giving Nigeria's position.

This issue is so stupendous that I’m beginning to think that the way the info was leaked to the media and timing reeks of electioneering propaganda. wink
