CENTRAL BANK INJECTS $210 MILLION INTO CURRENCY MARKET source: http://www.eyesoflagos.com/2018/02/central-bank-injects-210-million-into.html Nigeria’s central bank said on Monday it had injected $210 million into the interbank foreign exchange market, part of an effort to improve liquidity and alleviate the dollar shortages of the past few years. Eyes Of Lagos gathered that, The bank said in a statement it had released $100 million earmarked for the wholesale market, $55 million for small businesses and individuals, and $55 million for certain dollar expenses such as school fees and medical bills. “The bank will continue to intervene in the interbank foreign exchange market, in line with its pledge to sustain liquidity in the market and maintain stability,” the central bank said in an emailed statement. Nigeria, Africa’s largest oil producer, fell into recession in 2016 largely because of low crude oil prices. Lower oil revenues led to dollar shortages, since crude sales are the country’s main source of dollars. Africa’s largest economy emerged from recession in the second quarter of last year as crude prices recovered and militant attacks against Niger Delta oil production facilities ended. Successful debt sales, including multiple Eurobond offerings last year, have helped Nigeria to accrue billions of dollars in foreign reserves.

I don't understand how the mechanism of Nigerian economics works,considering the fact that oil price has been going up for sometime now but it is yet to reflect on our exchange rate,had it been the reverse was the case we would have seen the rise in exchange rate.everything here is scam ![]() 13 Likes |

phosky: These are only temporary measures. It is not sustainable. They are just pumping in money so the value of the naira goes up. For how long will we continue this? The best thing for the nation right now is for us to be exporting and not importing most of our goods. We are not exporting; rather, we continue importing, thereby putting pressure on our foreign reserves which are in dollars. It is making the demand for dollars outweigh supply. In a situation where there is nothing to increase the demand for the local currency, the naira will continue to perform poorly against the dollar. There is no way that the CBN will continue to pump money into the market and think that it can sustain it. ![]() 3 Likes |

efesodje:It is not temporary. The earnings in dollars being pumped into the economy is what gives the value of the Naira. It didn't start yesterday, it has always been the case and it is done all over the world especially in import dependent countries whose currencies are not acceptable internationally. Additionally, the Nigerian government spends Naira in Nigeria for the payment of salaries, local contractors and other national finances, so even what it earns in dollars must be exchanged for the Naira through those pumpings. |

Misplaced priorities. Subsidizing the dollar is never a sustainable way of improving the economy. Hike in dollar price is simply as a result of high importation of refined oil. Am still wondering why this government sees building of new and effective refinery as a rocket science. We are good in tackling the symptoms and not curing the disease. 1 Like |

12submarine: It's not a Long term solution, one of such lessons can be learnt from the U.K government when they had to pull out from European ERM after failing to stabilize the pound to trade at a lower limit. They eventually gave up and lost nothing less than 3 billion pounds, trying to stabilize their currency. I believe the best solution is for Nigerian government to work on reducing its deficit trade balance by increasing its exports, it will create more demand for the Naira which will give more value to the Naira. As it stands CBN cannot tamper with Interest rate, it will hurt the economy more and we can't attract Foreign Direct Investments either, most foreign investors fear Nigeria will enter De-Leveraging stage. |

lastempero:The naira is fixed against only the dollar because we operate a fixed currency regime since Nigeria has been existing. This is due to the fact that Nigeria is an import dependent country. The only way the naira can rise in exchange rate is if we float the currency to be determined by market forces. But we can't in our current import driven economy as this will ruin the naira to say 1000/$. This govt has for the first time in Nigeria committed to floating the naira by 2021 thereabouts that's why it is striving hard to work us out of importing certain items that drain our forex, especially rice, wheat, petroleum products and steel. |

debolayinka:Except we take charge of our lives through local production of items we will keep cosmecting the economy expecting the exchange rate to determine our future. When we have high exportation and less of imports exchange rate will drop as we will have dollar chasing our currency. Not this syringe injection that cannot last. Here are more determining factors that are not far-fetched Inflation Rates. Changes in market inflation cause changes in currency exchange rates. ... Interest Rates. Changes in interest rate affect currency value and dollar exchange rate. ... Country's Current Account / Balance of Payments. ... Government Debt. ... Terms of Trade. ... Political Stability & Performance. ... Speculation Let us build a working economy and not a cosmetic one like we have since time immemorial |
