They argue that increase in the money supply that is about an increase in the purchasing power of the people and the result is inflation in the federal government, though the ministry of finance and the carnal bank of Nigeria are responsible for these policies. The central bank of Nigerian issues a monetary policy circular at the beginning of every fiscal year containing details of the government new monetary polices.
The Keynesian view is that monetary policy should be directed at interest rates rather than money supply and that monetary policy should at all times be subsidiary to fiscal policy.
