Onye Ajuju, a policy expert, has provided data which demonstrates that inflation was lower under CBN governors like Soludo and Sanusi, who were economists.

He said,

Question on Nigerian inflation:

Does it matter if the central bank gov is an economist or not?

Yes o

People from commercial banks should not be cbn governors

Economics, Bank and Finance and Management are the fields that could effectively handle a macro economy.

You don't necessary need to be an Economist, as long as you are from the above area of specialization and you're good at what you do, then no issues as those courses can easily be intertwined.

Na so
This one wey get bsc for public administration wey wan enter so, nothing related to field wey him sabi
If Nigeria was a decent nation where public offices appointment are on merit, we should have been looking forward to people of PhD in economics, Mathematics, or mathematics/statistics for CBN jobs

But here criminals and drugs dealers are the ones handling public offices

Yes because they were funding imports !!

What exactly does that have to do with anything?
The research is too narrow
He should broaden it to other countries with similar economic profile like Nigeria to get something tangible

True

Sorry faithful hopefuls, Nigeria will forever remain in a pitiable state, however i strongly believe that legit hard-working individuals will always survive.

Sanusi was also from a commercial bank

It is a factor (competence) but not the only one character and independence are also important.

Accountants are for Checks and Balance.

Economists are best when it comes to managing an economy.
It's just painful that in this part of the world we have misplaced prioritise.

What we have now are farmers and politicians

Hmmm...

Positions like that of the CBN governor, Finance Minister etc. Should never be politicised but reserved for the very best. But in Nigeria we play with everything, now see the result.

FACT

Soludo first and second while sanusi third and amefule fourth.

Yaribans won't agree 😆

and yet, it did not kill the economy with inflation like now.

Ok

Nepotism kills any good thing.

I sell apple gadgets, check my topics

The position of CBN need not to be politicised.

The data is too narrow to make a conclusion and correlation is not causation.

Damn that’s true

Then they should effing bring in the Economist.

A better Nigeria 🇳🇬 all around is all we want at MANNA.

Slow and steady we will get to see the nation of our dreams, a land flowing with milk and honey with Peak Milk.

The researcher is talking about Nigeria alone.
