1.7 HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA (CBN)

Central bank is referred to as the role of central monetary authority or Apex financial institutions within the entire financial structure in promoting monetary stability and sound financial system.

The central bank of Nigeria involves through direct legislation and was super imposed on the colonial financial structure that exists prior to 1959. The establishment of the bank was stimulated by various factors, prominent among which were the nationalistic feeling that was the ease in the 1950’s the adverse effect of the 1952 banking or ordinance which lead to the collapse of many indigenous banks the lopsided method of approval and disbursement of loan by the surviving expatriate banks to indigenous business men, the quest for accelerated economic development of the country and the need for economic independence of the country.

These reasons propose the private member motion by Hon. K.O Mbadiwe in April 1952 in the Federal House of Representatives calling for the establishment of a central bank of Nigeria, to perform functions generally expected of central banks.

He advocated that the Federal Government should initiate, organize and easterlies within two from the passage of the motion, A central bank of Nigeria was defected In the house since colonial authorities felt that the establishment of the bank was premature, considering the non -existence of a domestic financial infrastructure and an organized money market.

An amendment to this motion calling an the government to examine and report on the possibility and desirability of establishing the central bank of Nigeria was later adopted by the house and this compelled the colonial government to appoint Mr. A. U. Fisher, an adviser to the bank of England, in 1953 to carry out these assignment.

Fisher based his repast on orthodox banking principle. He argue that sound financial environment does not exist for a central bank in Nigeria at that part in time. The rather proposed a three step programme leading to the establishment of a central bank. According to Fisher (1956) these includes:

Transfer of all operations of the West African Currency Board to African so that its management would eventually be indigenized after the local people have acquired the necessary experience.
Establishment of a Nigeria currency and a separate currency board to take over Nigeria’s share of West African Currency Board (W ACB) assets and
Establishment of a bank of issue as the embryo of the future central bank.

The Fisher’s report was reserved with mixed feeling by the indigenous people. The World Bank mission of 1955 also reviewed the case for a central bank of Nigeria. The World Bank report lead to the invitation of Sir J.B. Loynes (another adviser to the Bank of England) in 1959 to advice on the feasibility of Establishing a Central Bank the Loynes Report favoured the establishment of Central Bank, subsequently; this led to the promulgation in March 1958 of the Central Bank of Nigeria ordinance.

The Central Bank later opened for business on July 1959 with wide power to perform various functions as specified in the ordinance with an initial capital of 3 million.

The Bank is principally found by the Federal Government and its controlled and managed by it. The act confirmed it power to control the operation of Commercial Bank and the monetary policies. The Central Bank operated with the 1958 ordinance as amended for many years. This ordinance was later repeated in 1991 by CBN Decree No. 24 of 1991.
