Someone should please explain the issue with trap funds

How do funds get trap when operators don't actually send their money to CBN for keeping
Those airlines have their parent bodies outside of Nigeria

They operate here, meaning we pay them in Naira.

The billions of Naira in their bank accounts in Nigeria needs to be converted to dollars and sent back to their countries.

There dollar scarcity, hence the money remains in Naira.

CBN had to release dollars to the banks to exchange for these airlines so their Naira is converted at ₦420 to $1.

For instance, BA has ₦20billion Naira in Zenith Bank.

They need to convert that money to dollars, but Aboki don't have such dollar volume. Only CBN has, so they give CBN Naira and they get dollars.

It's not like someone seized their money

Another indirect subsidy?
Or what happened to getting it from other sources like every one else

That means USA is the only country in the world they are not going to have this issue
If you're a frequent international traveler, you would say thank you to CBN.

Buying ticket at Aboki exchange rate means traveling to Kenya may cost ₦500k.

There I&É investors exchange rate different from Aboki exchange rate.

This is helping to check inflation
