The spotlight will shine on the former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Tunde Lemo, this Sunday at the October edition of the BOILING POINT ARENA public discourse.
Lemo will take the stage as a guest speaker, bringing forth his insights on critical macroeconomic issues, monetary policies, and the current economic management of the CBN, all under the theme “Persistent Unstable Macro-economic Environment: Any Way Out?”
One of the core topics of discussion will be the alarming depreciation of the naira, which has crossed the N1000 per dollar mark.
The former CBN deputy governor will dissect the various policy directions and assess the performance of the successive CBN administrations over the past two decades. He will also offer solutions to the challenges that have recently plagued the regulatory bank.

A statement by the Chairman of the Organizing Committee for the program, Eddy Ademosu, highlighted that the interview discourse would thoroughly examine the root causes of the prolonged depreciation of the nation’s currency, dating back to the time when the Naira and the US Dollar stood on equal footing.
