Finance minister Wale Edun says President Bola Tinubu’s government is committed to deepening the alignment of Nigeria’s fiscal and monetary policies to stimulate economic growth.
Mr Edun expressed the commitment during a working visit to the Central Bank of Nigeria on Monday, a statement by the finance ministry said.
The minister said the commitment was against the backdrop of easing of the country’s inflation rate to 22.97 per cent in May.
He said discussions with the CBN governor, Yemi Cardoso, were focused on sustaining the momentum to stabilise prices, boost investor confidence, and empower private sector-led growth.
The minister reiterated his commitment to collaborative economic management, signalling a renewed focus on driving sustainable growth and development.
