Twenty-four hours after the President’s absence from the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Mr Godwin Emefiele, met Muhammadu Buhari behind closed doors.

Mr Emefiele told journalists after the meeting, that the President expressed delight over the news that the sustainable increase in global oil price is providing the needed ammunition for the Apex bank to stabilise the economy.

The recovery of the Naira against the dollar at the Interbank and Black markets in recent times according to the CBN governor, is reducing the pressure on the economy.

Mr Emefiele will be the third top official of government to brief the President in one week.

He had met with the AGF and the NNPC GMD on Tuesday.
