Buhari is the most useless thing to have happened to this country. Using an achiac and an outdated way to run the country, using over $9billion Just to defend the naira when this money can transform a state. The old man has nothing to offer this country, whenever he destroys and bastardized the country and he is lost of what to do he run to London. |

It's not up to $6bn since osibanjo started releasing dollar into the market. How did they get $9bn? |

They are just crying because money for constituency projects has not been released. No Christmas money for them yet. Why else will members of both ruling and opposition parties be on the same page as regards policies of the ruling party? 1 Like 1 Share |

SBG04: I believe with you completely on this, but you and I know this approach can only be sustained if the oil price keep appreciating, any decrease in price of oil would make the government pull out on this which would lead to forex shortfall and the attendant effects |

9japrof:True. The long term solution is not fiscal demand management like the CBN was doing in 2016 or supply management like they're doing now. Its in increasing our productivity on the international stage. We need to increase our local production in products where we have competitive advantage, not just agricultural commodities. Thankfully Dangote's refinery will cut down a significant amount of the demand for dollars. Also the increase in our local rice production will further reduce our demand for the dollar by a mile. After creating a sort of parity on the demand and supply lines for the dollar, we can then allow market forces take it from there. |

US dollar seems to be rearing back since this week. If it goes full on bullish, naira falls to N400+ soon. Interventions in the currency market have never worked for any country without strong monetary and fiscal policies. CBN is throwing money after bad money. Do they have any alternatives? The sad reality is a resounding No! It sucks. / |

bigpicture001:that's the fear of the unknown. I'm guessing the cbn has their reasons but I'm point is that the current forex policy leads to many uncertainty and no one want to buisness where their is uncertainty. |

abescom:good luck tried to boost the economy with massive spending, I think the only problem with his administration was that they was no will for massive production. Well let's forget about the past and focus on the future. |

0m0nnakoda:foreigners that you have mentioned only invest in services and not in production. services are easier with little risk. take dstv for instance, no major investment with nigeria in mind, their satelite just beam down their service here and shoprite import most of their good from south Africa so we are just a market for their goods. I know that they are more companies but the ones that matters are not here and the monetary policy is not helping ( I'm not saying that all this is because of cbn policies) |

Useless country! This whopping $9b that they have used to "defend the naira" would been invested into the economy to facilitate economic growth. Once your economic engine starts cranking, your currency would appreciate. You don't need to use your scarce foreign exchange to defend your currency .... that's a "monetary policy malpractice". One of those things you can only hear in Nigeria! O pari |

LordofNaija: High oil prices....between $94-125 from 2010-July 2014...when oil began to fall. High oil prices meant that a lot of forex flowed into the accounts...which also meant that CBN comfortably relaxed forex restrictions put in place in 2008-9 , and which meant that investors felt comfy bringing in forex to Nigeria...and it also meant that CBN had enough forex to buffer the naira. If oil was high now...the same thing would have happened during Bubu's regime. But high forex inflows does not a good economy make. The same thing happened between 1973-82....when oil prices were last high. |
