Even a fool knows that move is utterly foolish.

You want to fight inflation by increasing interest rate when over 80% of Nigerian liquidity is outside the banking system.

This move is counterproductive. It'll only stifle investment and productivity.

No wonder Tinubu wrecked the economy

Your 3rd class OBI has suddenly become the financial expert dictating what the Central Bank should do.

Your wish abi?

CBN is doing what its expected to do to reduce inflation...They must reduce the money in circulation which is a step in the right direction.
The FG on the other hand is working to improve security to increase production which you stated...What else do you want them to do Mr. Obi?


The mere fact Obi doesn't understand that cbn has a job to stabilise the monetary policy of the nation while the executive should tackle insecurity is a BIG red flag , I'm not surprised though , his performance as governor should tell any right thinking person that Obi doesn't have what it takes to run Nigeria .

Why not come out be bold and tackle head on those sabotaging the economy either through terrorism like bokoharam and iswap aka bandits or the currency sabotuers? wht is he afraid of? Why is he hesistant to do the needful? what do they have on him that is making him sit and watch the economy erode to this extent? at this rate tinubu may not do 4 years complete even
The insecurity in the country is the major problem. The economy is robust to make people wealthy but the impact of boko haram, bandits and kidnapping is the major problem....marching orders need to be given. State policing should begin full force

So Obi, a trader and a philosophy graduate is more knowledgeable than those MPC members whose decisions have been applauded by experts like Prof Kingsley Moghalu and others on TV and Radio discussions?

Does Obi have access to all the information at the disposal of MPC members?

He that thinks he's wise is the most foolish.

I rarely respond to this kind of beer parlor advice from a brewer who must have taken some cups before speaking.

Market Container Economics doesn't know that the hike in interest rates is meant to Strengthen the Naira

And your empty head doesnt know that most businesses and production take loans from.bank to function.

Audu Ogbeh when he was agric minister under Buhari once said that only people pushing cocaine can actually be able to pay back bank loans at the rates then, how much more increasing it now.
Well I dont blame ignorant people like yoh who are not into production or trading. You will never understand the implication of this useless pilicy by cardoso. He is invariably stiffling production thus leading to loss of jobs.

Obi wasn't and he's not an exceptional person. He only came at a time when Nigeria and Nigerians, especially the younger generation were looking for a younger person.

Lol, Obi will always be a boy but I think he's right about this, because increasing the monetary policy rate and cash reserve ratio can cause job losses in sectors that depend on bank loans and credit. Just sticking to traditional economic theories will not be enough to handle Nigeria's current complicated economic problems. All I want is progress for Nigeria --Kudos Obi
I believe it.Is a short term but necessary stabilisation move.
It should not and cannot last and I expect it to reverse before the end of the year
It will.cause problems in the economy no doubt but there are other instruments from places like Bank of industry e.g. Not enough but these are tough times and the immediate priority is to stabilise the Naira .and stop volatility
People must have confidence in the Naira as a store of value That is NUMBER ONE
Yes we need security but that will take time . The problem did not arise overnight and won't go overnight

The astonishing thing is zombies attacking Obi for speaking up about the negative effect raising rates will have onlocal manufacturing and production
A few days back, zombies were telling us how we need to grow and produce more. They told us bread and rice are bad while we should eat yam and garri
They told us how we need to "kill importation"
They told us the reason the naira was falling lower than my grandma's breasts was because Nigerians are not productive and they love foreign goods too much
Now, their god has gone ahead to enact a policy to further kill local production while making importation cheaper with low value of our currency and they are still clapping for ther god
Zombies lack common sense

This guy should shut up. He doesn't know jack about monetary policy. CBN needs to control the inflation but raising the bank rate. That's how it's done all over the world. America did it mire than 8 times in 2022/ 2023.

Tackling insecurity in the country and providing the farmers with aid will improve food production, and inflation and hunger will reduce.. CBN rule can still wait let's tackle insecurity first, that is our major problem now, all hands must be on deck let's move the country forward.

How can he when he is the bigger criminal. That Man knows everything going on. The same way he was acting the fool during campaign, dropping gaffes and English blunders but suddenly found himself after he was announced winner in the middle of the night. That Man is the biggest criminal in history of this country. Look at the caliber of people associated with him. It baffling how some people still think He is not responsible for everything happening. People led by this same Emilokan almost asked that Jonathan should be jailed or executed when a bag of rice was still #8k , dollar 180, fuel #65. But somehow same hypocrites thinks he is not the problem today

He is quite right about this one, increasing the interest rate on loans will only kill already dying companies left in Nigeria. Cost of doing business due to lack of energy, insecurity and infrastructure has already put almost all companies into verge of liquidation, not to talk of borrowing at high interest rate to finance dying business.

These people only had interest of international communities and elites at hearts and not the masses. The government that threw her citizens into almost total darkness since early January withiout providing any solution to fix the collapsed national grids for good two months is not worth to be call an active government.

One thing is certain, this government don't care about the masses but statistics to looks good internationally. It is quite unfortunate and embarrassing that governments in Africa don't focus on individual development of their citizens but keep chasing foreign induced economic statistics they know little or nothing about.

Cutting down irrational demands for dollars is good but raising interest rate will do more damage to our economy than they might thought. If this government has distributed tractors, seeds and provide security and land for farm settlements for farmers in every local governments, we should've be expecting significant downfall of food price by now.
