The Civil Society Network for Good Governance has called for Nigerians to play their part in strengthening the nation’s economy, adding that the success of the Central Bank Of Nigeria (CBN) means success for all Nigerians.
In a statement by the organisation and signed by its President Barr. Kamal Adefila, the group noted that “economies are built by all hands being on deck and all stakeholders knowing that there are limits to power seeking and politicking at the expense of the greater good.”
According to the CSO, “the Nigerian economy is dealing with a lot of headwinds as many other economies around the world, which require everyone to do their part in the economy rather than trying to whip up sentiments against a key institution of the state.”
The Network argued that; “the failure of the CBN will be the end of our country and those pushing for the apex bank to be violated against legal fail-safes provided for in its enabling act, should know that the success of the CBN is success for all Nigerians and not any president alone”.
The statement further called on the media not to allow to be used by vested interests and power mongers to push destructive narratives masquerading as public interest.
Barr. Adefila urged all Nigerians not to “allow themselves be used by those seeking to unleash anarchy on Nigeria rather than make needed sacrifices for the much-needed development of the giant of Africa”.
