The president also appointed four new members of the monetary policy committee (MPC), the highest policy-making body of the apex bank.
They are Adeola Adenikinju, Aliyu Sanusi, Robert Asogwa and Asheikh Maidugu. Their names have also been forwarded to the upper legislative chamber of the national assembly for confirmation.
