President Muhammadu Buhari has nominated Godwin Emefiele for a second term as governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
Emefiele was first appointed in 2014 by former president Goodluck Jonathan and was retained when Buhari came to office in 2015.
The letter for the tenure renewal was signed by Buhari on Wednesday and has now been sent to the senate.
By the CBN Act, the senate must confirm the nomination before it can take effect.
This
is the first time since 1999, when Nigeria returned to democracy, that
anyone would be nominated to serve two terms as CBN governor.
Before assuming the office of the CBN governor, the 57-year-old banker was the group managing director of Zenith Bank Plc.
Emefiele was at the helm of affairs when the country slipped into its worse recession in 29 years.
In 2015 when global oil prices began to decline, there had been calls for the devaluation of the naira.
However, Buhari opposed the idea.
As CBN governor, Emefiele introduced various interventions to ensure that the naira was kept stable.
