You're a clown.

Zambian President has proven this assertion to be a lie.

Go and see the changes the President did in his few months in office.

Leadership isn't rocket science.

It's not by snatching it at all cost.

You don’t increase production
Your don’t increase export
Your don’t increase direct foreign investments
You still have insecurity
Oil price continues to fall
Corruption is at the highest level
Import is at highest level
You continue to borrow heavily and pay heavily on interest from your oil revenue

Yet you expect dollars to be abundant.
Ignoring basic economics of supply and demand

No amount of wishes will do it. The worst is dollar is not even controlled by CBN. Propaganda policies won’t cut it.

Fix the rot from the root.

So what is the essence of floating the dollar? undecided

Re: Forex Scarcity Persists As CBN Resumes Intervention by SendoSendal: 6:07pm On Jun 26, 2023

Forex rate is a function of demand and supply. NNPC and CBN can strengthen the Naira by bringing more dollars generated from daily crude sales out into the market but CBN should not defend the Naira again with our foreign reserves. Since its now freely floated, let the market continue to dictate rates based on the forces of demand and supply.

Exactly my tots. They think they can wish changes without changing from consumption to production issue. And we all know who can achieve this. I think Nigerians are not ready for change yet.

The only practical and reliable policy that can halt the continuous rise of dollar is increment in cash reserve ie (when we have enough dollar in our reserve) and that can only happen when we increase our production and reduce importation. Any policy not woven around that is bound to fail in Nigeria I don't know any other country but it will fail here.

But who is the Nigerian ever born to question Buhari and his ilk in Nigeria?
If Buhari was in the ballot for 3rd term during the last presidential election, he could have won 3rd term.

This can be solved by dollars electronic transfers, you can't get some amount of cash in American banks even.. You do transfer for international transactions, that will keep the cash in the system, if you allow aboki unfettered access to the dollars.. He will take it a and sell at higher rate,once the bank price is attractive.. More dollar volume will enter the system.. Nd for heavens sakes.. They should abandon the 3 windows and stick with one rates.. The parallel market rate.

Re: Forex Scarcity Persists As CBN Resumes Intervention by Perewenkle1: 6:23pm On Jun 26, 2023

How much do we export to earn foreign currency, $ availability is not just talk or floating Naira, floating local currency is good but it does not affect your $ availability.
Go back and read elementary teaching of balance of trade surplus and its effect on the economy.

How is it not working?
If you do not have dollars,how do you intend to sell?
If you don't export to earn dollars .then how to get dollars for your imports?

You're just confusing yourself.

It's not working and will never work because of your 2nd and 3rd sentences.

How can you float it when the main problem is scarcity and still expect the floating to work?

Hehehehe, free float of the dollar, when the only thing that brings in the dollars are been stolen by the military in conjunction with the cabals, while the tiny one that manages to enter govt coffers are stolen by politicians and evil govt officials, so which one con dey available for Banks to dispense? Recover 1/4 of what bubu and his cohorts stole and the economy will recover.

I thought you supported the floating too?

Just like the subsidy removal, this is another crazy and ill-advised policy inplemented by a man who knows absolutely nothing about the most basic of the economic principles.

Market forces should never be allowed to determine the value of a currency in an economy that has perpetually been plagued by dollar scarcity from poor forex earnings and excessive demands.

The drunkard even stopped the naira4dollar policy that was encouraging the diasporians to send dollars to Nigeria every month and helped to increase the supply.

Re: Forex Scarcity Persists As CBN Resumes Intervention by otomatic(m): 6:49pm On Jun 26, 2023

Why won't there be scarcity when all we so is import everything and only export crude oil?
The country cannot mint dollars so we need to reduce imports and increase exports to earn it.
Until then, scarcity will continue with the attendant increase in exchange rate
