This is to inform our stakeholders and the general public that the May 2020
meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the Central Bank of Nigeria
(CBN), earlier scheduled for Monday and Tuesday, May 25 and 26, 2020,
respectively, will now hold on Thursday, May 28, 2020. This is as a result of the
declaration of Monday and Tuesday, May 25 and 26, 2020, as Eid-el Fitr
holidays.
For the avoidance of doubt, the CBN has put in place all necessary machinery
for the meeting to now hold for only one day on account of the on-going
COVID-19 national lockdown and to align this meeting with extant rules of the
Presidential Task Force (PTF) on COVID-19 and advisories from other relevant
agencies.
All inconveniences caused by these changes are regretted.
