Nigeria’s president Muhammadu Buhari has nominated central bank governor Godwin Emefiele for a second five-year term in office, a senior lawmaker announced on March 9.

Emefiele will need to be confirmed by Nigeria’s senate, which is due to hold hearings on his re-nomination early next week.

Emefiele’s first five-year term ends this month.
