ABUJA, Aug 19 (Reuters) - A UK court ruling that granted a
small gas firm the right to attempt to seize $9 billion in
assets from Nigeria's government had some impact on the West
African country's monetary policy, the head of its central bank
said on Monday.
Godwin Emefiele said the bank would defend its dollar
reserves. He also said Nigeria had sufficient grounds to appeal
the ruling, over an aborted gas project in the southern Nigerian
city of Calabar, made on Friday in favour of Process and
Industrial Developments Ltd.
