As a result the parallel market exchange rate dropped from N391 per dollar to N389 per dollar. Confirming this to Vanguard, President, Association of Bureaux De Change Operators of Nigeria (ABCON), Alhaji Gwadabe said that BDCs have already paid to purchase another $20,000 from the CBN which would be delivered today, expressing optimism that the supply will further enhance the appreciation of the naira against the dollar.

Meanwhile, the CBN said that banks and other authorized dealers have again failed to fully subscribe to the $150 million it offered yesterday. It stated that the dealers could only pick the sum of $43.5 million, which represents 29 per cent of the $150 million offered for subscription in the wholesale segment of the foreign exchange market.

Confirming this development, the apex Bank’s spokesman, Isaac Okorafor, reaffirmed the Bank’s position to sustain the intervention with a view to making foreign exchange available for all genuine transactions eligible for foreign exchange through the CBN window.

Mr. Okorafor also allayed the fear over the dwindling subscription by authorized dealers noting that the development merely goes to confirm the extent of liquidity in the foreign exchange market and the determination of the CBN to sustain the intervention aimed at ensuring stability in the market.

Nigeria is like a White man's dead body, if you carry it up is not good, If you carry it down its not good too. All these blames should go to Lugard for coming to Africa.

They said the darkest place is beside the candle, I believe removing the ban placed on card will improve the fate of our Naira, Coz little biz sourcing forex from the parallel market can used their cards there reducing the pressure on the parallel market, it will also ease the forex tension. They can control our spending by limiting daily transactions. Well what did I know, just my opinion tho

But price of commodities keep increasing angry I no longer trust the Nigerian media, always misleading people. This week, I read that Shekau was injured in an airstrike, next week, it would be "military pursued Shekau for 5 hours, he sustained injuries".

Different lies are told everyday to placate our anger!

I wonder why people love to celebrate mediocrity. Please, what difference therein is between 391&389? This is pathetic... When you're tired, you will do the necessary things meant to bring the exchange rate down, and not this artificial nonsense. angry
