The Central Bank of Nigeria has announced the 299th meeting of its Monetary Policy Committee using four indigenous languages, Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo, and Pidgin.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the apex bank shared the announcement in different languages:
Hausa: “Sanarwa, kwamitin kudi na MPC zai gudanar da taro karo na ‘299’ #MPC”
Igbo: “Okwa di oke mkpa 299th MPC, Ogbakọ komitii na afu maka atumatu ego #MPC”
Yoruba: “Kere O 299th MPC, Ipade kokan din loodunrun igbimo MPC yio waye ni #MPC”
Pidgin: “Korret Informate, 299th MPC, Committee for Moni mata #MPC”
The CBN had previously rescheduled the MPC meeting, initially set for February 17–18, to February 18–19.
The MPC meeting remains a key event shaping Nigeria’s economic outlook, influencing decisions on interest rates, inflation control, and overall macroeconomic stability.
