Many people are terribly educated in economic matters. The rise of exchange rate has nothing to do with Governor Emefiele. The forces of demand and supply determine the exchange rate of a currency. Unfortunately, Nigeria produces so little for export aside from oil and gas.

That's why Amaechi argued that why they are building railway to Niger Republic was to encourage the landlocked country to import through Lagos and move the goods through Nigeria's railways. When Niger Rep people come to do business in Nigeria, they will definitely come with USD, but they didn't consider that the country is POOR!

@Jeraldsador, my problem with him is that the people haven't felt his impact like people did in the time of Soludo and Sanusi. By the way, if you say he has done well, you tell us what he has done excellently.

The CBN, under Emefiele, has promoted the Accelerated Agricultural Development Scheme (AADS), designed for prospective farmers who must be Nigerian youth within the ages of 18 to 35 years. The plan under the scheme is to engage at least 10,000 youths per state and the Federal Capital Territory in agricultural production towards food security, job creation and economic diversification, based on commodities of comparative advantage. see ehn, it is a lot he has done.

Let us focus on our leaders and not prosecute a man doing a job well

I think it strange that we are all quick to persecute Emefiele for any problem that befalls Nigeria and leave out the Ministers of Finance and Economy.
We forget that he is just the Gov. of CBN and we have a Minister Zainab Ahmed that keeps borrowing the country into debt. People who know about finance would recall how the Nigerian economy was, under Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and under Kemi Adeosun before the forces that be decided to accuse her of NYSC exemption letter forgery.

The CBN governor under this women enjoyed amazing tenors, but we are all quick to bury GIE as though he is the one who is borrowing Nigeria into debt and increasing the Value Added Tax of the country.

Godwin Emefiele has done excellent well thus far and i think he should be applauded for what he has achieved and not buried. Plus., if we want to point hands let the fingers go round the Minister of Finance, Economy before reaching him.
