go.comA Bill for an Act to amend
Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Act to entrench parliamentary accountability and enhance
the bank’s efficiency scaled second reading at the House of
Representatives on Thursday.
The bill, which was sponsored by Rep. Binta Bello (Gombe-PDP) in conjunction with three other legislators, seeks to enhance transparency in the apex bank’s operations.
Leading the debate on the motion, Bello said the Act, when amended, would
enable the bank to discharge its statutory duties more effectively.
She said that the bill sought to provide for the appointment of a person other than the Governor, as the Chairman of the
bank’s Board.
The legislator said that there was need to also divest the board
of the powers of determining and fixing its own salaries and
allowances.

She added that the bill, when made a law, would check the powers of the board in considering and approving the annual budget
of the bank.
In his contribution, Rep. Simon Arabo (Kaduna-PDP) said transparency could
not determine that the same person should chair the Board and the Management of the bank.
