The recipients collect it from the bank and exchanged it at the parallel market. The billions of Dollars are in people's homes and that's why there's scarcity.

Nigeria is such a criminal state. The managers create artificial scarcity of FX to create avenue for them to make money.

You can imagine that, as per CBN report, during Buhari administration, some people were buying FX at least that _₦10/$ under a subhead called "invincible" while same was exchanging for over ₦400/$

What's your business with where the fx went to, do you want government to force them to convert it or what?

Remove your eye from people money.

I believe it's true close to 21 billion usd flower into the Economy last year.
The truth is these information is verifiable,not some data that was brought from nowhere.
All you need to do is ask all the banks to produce their foreign remittance through their various channels like western union, remitly,world remit e.t.c.
There are also fintechs apps like flutterwave, paystack that allow remittance in Usd.
When you add all these payments,you can actually determine the amount that was sent to Nigeria.
Back to your question,the truth is almost 90% of these payments end up in the hands of the local Bureau d change hausa guy on the street of Nigeria.
You will be amazed at how much foreign currency flows to these guys everyday,I keep saying if you remove foreign remittances in Nigeria,the naira will be around 2000 to a Usd.
Ask yourself the question,have you met anyone who collected payment through those foreign remittances channel and changed it in the bank.
I believe it's time for Government to work with these Local Bureau d change and figure out a way to regulate the amount they buy and sell these foreign currencies.

Laughing. There no such thing on Google. Maybe you want Google to search your mind !
I'm worried because innocent people can take this trash as truth, that's why I want you to put your source so I can learn as well
