linearity:If you think dollar rise is driven by foreign airline repatriation, then you are not well informed about Nigeria's current economic situation. These airlines funds aren't even a recent event, it has been accumulating for months. Even this release does not even cover everything. The CBN delays and restricts forex because of scarcity. Period. Any other explanation is just an attempt to hoodwink the gullible. There has been no recent surge in forex earnings for Nigeria, so CBN playing hide and seek on airline forex repatriation will have no long-term effect on the upward trend of dollar. Of course, some novices will panic at a likely dip next week due to this "good news" not knowing that it is just a temporary change. The trend will continue upward for the foreseeable future. 2 Likes |

linearity: “because Airlines who are under pressure goes through third parties and the black market to repatriate some money, thereby causing increase in dollar price” Note that airlines operating in Nigeria don’t do that. They wait to get the foreign currency through the CBN. If they try black market, the loss will be massive. 3 Likes |

Sultannayef:Even the foreign airlines hardly does it or they surfer massive loss too. Their operational costs and fairs are based on Nigeria's official rates. If he was correct, airlines would have quietly converted all their funds using the parallel market. |

oluwaseyi0: The airlines have these monies in local bank accounts...all in Naira. They are not allowed to charge in US Dollars. The issue is Nigeria's huge differential between official and parallel rates. Up to N270 differential per dollar. Airlines charge at official rate. But the CBN does not allow them to buy back the dollars at official rate to send back to their countries. They cannot afford to lose N270 on every dollar per transaction. They are not charity businesses. CBN has no option than to create a special FX intervention window. If BA and Emirates stop flying to Naija, Atiku and all others whose kids are schooling in the UK will be in hot soup. That's why it took less than three days to create this window for the airlines to purchase dollars at concessionary prices. But the children of the poor in public universities have no such succour. That's why 6 months down the road, no public universities are open. Democracy is a system of government where the rich use the poor to get votes, just to get richer and create a system that favours only the rich while the poor languish. 3 Likes |

ivolt: Please tell him. These airlines funds have been stuck in their accounts for nearly 9 months. Nigeria entered into swap agreements with refiners for imported petroleum products. Every dollar earned by Nigeria from crude goes to the refiners and products enter Nigeria with a premium on top of the dollars. The difference is the subsidy which we are told is now N4 trillion. In the last one year, not one dollar has entered NNPC coffers for remittance to the Federation account. The importation of petroleum products accounts for two-thirds of Nigeria's dollar demand. Stopping this importation will shore up the Naira's value. 1 Like |

Reactive measures. Way out is to - 1. Fix power, 2. Take out corruption, 3. Ramp up on ease of doing business across ALL productive sectors, 4. Identify exportable goods and services and actively encourage the utilisation of export Windows. 5. Drastically reduce the cost of running government by cutting salaries and emoluments of political appointees and elected public officials. That way, folks who seek to access public office for financial gains are less attracted to political and elective offices leaving the political space for the focused on service delivery. |

oluwaseyi0:t They can’t spend Naira in there country. So they need to convert to dollars. And dollars is scarce. CBN is the bank that clears the funds of any thing Nigeria is buying or selling. So you can only buy such huge forex from CBN. No alhaji get 400m$ cash to exchange for Naira. |
