I Am Not Responsible For Today’s Problems – CBN Governor Cardoso

Olayemi Cardoso, the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), has stated that he is not accountable for the nation’s economic problems.

Cardoso made this statement on Tuesday, February 27, during the first Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting run by him. Additionally, he stated that the CBN is acting to restore the nation’s financial and budgetary stability.

He said; ”I laugh at that question but it’s not a laughing matter and I think it is very important for Nigerians to understand that the Central Bank Governor; I and my team, are not responsible for the woes that we have today; we are part of the solution.

“We are determined to ensure that we work hard to get out of the mess that Nigeria is in. We assumed responsibility in a time of crisis of confidence; there was a crisis of confidence and you may all want to go to bed and wish that crisis of confidence was not there but it was, and we can’t turn back the clock.

“All we can do is do the difficult things to make a bad situation better and I do believe that the efforts that we are making are beginning to bring back confidence because, to be frank, without confidence in your business, you are not going to get far.”

A Gentle Reminder: Every obstacle is a stepping stone, every morning; a chance to go again, and those little steps take you closer to your dream.
