The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) will hold its next
monetary policy committee (MPC) meeting in April 3-4, a spokesman for the apex bank said on Monday.

“The new dates for
the MPC are April 3 and 4,” the spokesman told Reuters by phone. “We
are hoping that between now and then the members of the committee would
have been confirmed by the Senate.” 
A political spat
over nominations for the MPC meant Nigeria’s Senate had not approved
President Muhammadu Buhari’s candidates, leaving the committee unable to
form a quorum to set interest rates.

The Senate will consider a report
into the nominations this week and could approve them, paving the way
for the first rate-setting meeting this year.
