The Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, on Tuesday cushion the economy by injecting a total of $482.6 million into the foreign exchange market.

According to a statement released by its Acting Director, Corporate Communications, Mr Isaac Okorafor in Abuja, this was part of the measures promised by the apex bank to moderate the Naira's value and sustain forex liquidity.

The breakdown of the intervention shows $285.7 million was allocated to the retail Secondary Market Intervention Sales, while $100 million was offered in the Wholesale SMIS auction window.

The invisibles segment, consisting of Personal Travel Allowance, medicals, tuition fees and Basic Travel Allowance was allocated $45 million.

Speaking further, Okorafor expressed optimism that the CBN's objective to converge exchange rate across all forex segments would be achieved soon, and called on all stakeholders to play their respective roles in ensuring the smooth running of the foreign exchange policy.

In April, the economy rebounded slightly after data showed the consumer prices and the economy improved following a series of policies instituted by the CBN to speed up economic recovery and sustain its diversification agenda.

So far, the CBN has injected about $5 billion into the forex market.

The Naira traded at an average of N375 to a dollar in Abuja, Lagos, Kano and Port-Harcourt on Tuesday.

The Naira traded at an average of N375 to a dollar in Abuja, Lagos, Kano and Port-Harcourt on Tuesday.

Actually, if this is at the parallel market, there is a little improvement. CBN, keep it up. Hopefully, at this rate and everything being equal, the Naira may trade around 300/$ before the end of the last quarter.
Long live The Fed Rep of Nigeria.

The injection/intervention has been futile, just spoke with a UBA customer representative about 5mins ago concerning how much the charge on card transactions and was told its #385/$.

Its been hopeless and needless.

CBN is only displaying incompetence. All these dollar injections we've been hearing and still no effect. Why not come up with new and better strategy.
Billions of dollars injected into the forex and the rate remains where it is and, prices of commodities still go up.
