Naira Appreciates To ₦‎1,280/$ At Parallel Market (33920 Views)

The naira, on Friday, appreciated to N1,280 per dollar at the parallel section of the foreign exchange (FX) market.

The current FX rate signifies a 5.19 percent appreciation from the N1,350/$ reported on March 27.

Currency traders in Lagos, also known as bureau de change (BDCs) operators, quoted the buying rate of the greenback at N1,260 and the selling price at N1,280 — leaving a profit margin of N20.

“The price of the dollar as well as other major currencies have been falling. It is affecting our business as some customers prefer to keep their currencies than change it with us,” a currency trader identified as Aliyu told TheCable.

At the official section of the FX market, the local currency depreciated by 0.69 percent to N1,309.39/$ on March 28 — from N1,300.43/$ on March 27.

Meanwhile, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), on March 29, said the economy recorded over $1.5 billion in foreign exchange (FX) inflow this month, indicating its monetary policy initiatives are effective.

The apex bank said the naira is headed in the right direction, and the istration of Yemi Cardoso, CBN governor, remains committed to ensuring the stability of the market and the appropriate pricing of the naira against other major currencies worldwide.

Those praying for Nigeria to fail will not like this news.

All their states are filled with corruptions and non performing politicians but they careless about that.

They filled all the social media platforms with hate and negative narratives about Nigeria 🇳🇬 publicly praying for the country leadership to fail.

Don't worry, you will all reap what you sow.

Truth is FG is selling lower and lower everyday to try and establish that sweet spot where demand equates supply. I hope they ve not exceeded that spot and resumed defence of one currency.

Lol,

Oshiomole style of leadership as NLC chairman.

They both know fuel will increase by N5. Government Increase fuel by N10. Everyone shouts and Oshiomole jumps round the Country.

Fuel reduces by N5. The original plan of the government, Masses say Fuel has reduced and Oshiomole try oooo.

Tinubu increases exchange rate to N1880. They know the economy is N1300-1400.

They bring it down to N1300-1400. Masses scream, Naira is appreciating.

I am forced to ask; Naira is appreciating from where ? Where did the present government meet it?

I expect 4 sets of people to land on this thread:

1. The "dollar should go back to the #600 it was before the floating" crew;

2. The "enemies of Nigeria won't be happy with this news" crew;

3. The "when will the prices of goods reduce" crew.

4. The "non- partisan and unbiased news reader" crew.

The irony now is that prices of goods are not depreciating. Nigerian economy defiles all known economic laws.

The set of enemies working out their assses to see Nigeria doesn't get out of the woods will sure be in pains. Some of the devils said the exchange rate will be 3000/$ before the end of March. All because Nigerians rejected their packaged fraud. Some of them are doing useless fact check over what is in public domain. They say it is propaganda and I ask, how can something that is visible to blind and audible to the deaf be propaganda again.

No, Rufai Oseni won't be happy.

It is because of this Rufai Oseni did not come to work yesterday.

I have not seen a human being so vile, hateful and peddles evil about his own country.

The only time ordinary Nigerians will celebrate this audio naira appreciation is when prices of goods and services drop astronomically same way everything went up astronomically.


Tinubu and his team of failures can only deceive their empty headed gullible low IQ followers

Happy the naira is apprciating in value but no concurrent effect on the inflation level at the moment but hopefully stability will come with time.

Posting the useless thread you created to counter this report is nothing but a symptom of pain. Fact checking my hairy balls. Go to bdc agents to prove this report wrong, not one hatefilled fact check bunkum. The God of over 200 million Nigerians is billion lightyears ahead of few hateful ipobidients.

Tinubu should at least leave it where he met it.

The same for pump price of fuel, leave it where you met it in the very least.

We can't still be paying subsidy and buying fuel at over 600naira.
