The Governor, Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, has invited foreign investors to consider Nigeria as their choice investment destination, noting that business confidence in the country is on the rise.

He said this during France-Nigeria’s Security and Economic Summit held in Paris, France.

“Let me also add that the CBN will continue to monitor progress and respond promptly and flexibly to support economic recovery from COVID.

“We will closely watch economic and financial conditions, and we will use our monetary policy tools to respond as appropriate to pursue our mandate of price and financial stability.”
