The Senate’s Committee on Banking, Insurance, and other Financial Institutions The Nigerian Senate has summoned the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Olayemi Cardoso, to appear before its Committee on Banking, Insurance and other Financial Institutions next Tuesday.

The move comes amid pressing concerns about the state of the economy and the sharp decline of the naira in the foreign exchange market.

With the official window reporting the naira falling to an all-time low as it hit a new low of N1,520 to a dollar on Wednesday, the Senate is seeking answers and solutions from the apex bank governor to stabilise the currency and restore confidence in the economy.
