On Tuesday, the Central Bank of Nigeria increased the interest rate to 14%.

Only two months have passed since the apex bank increased the interest rate to 13% before the new rate was announced.

Godwin Emefiele, governor of the central bank, announced this following a meeting of the committee at the CBN’s headquarters in Abuja.

According to the governor of the top bank, the increase in interest rates will help rein in rising inflation.
