But on a serious note like play like play dis tin go enter 500 oooo.jesus christ buhari don finish dis country.blame GEJ and fill the wrath of the devil.they said GEJ was bad but we weren't suffering this much.we still bought derica of rice for 150 but now its almost 300.if we the middle class is complainin,if we that hav jobs that they pay us small money complaines,wat of the poor,wat of those that don't have jobs.yeye president.this is wat happens wen people foolishly nd blindly elect an illiterates that called his VP OSINBADE.

instead of u to encourage d buying d ofada or ekpoma rice which is about 50naira per derica u r here talking trash.

wen ur hero jona could not save for d rainyday.wen oil price was 60dollar per barrel evn d "evil obj" was able to save well over 62bn dollars for d country.
jonathan sold oil at d rate of about 120dollar per barrel on d average,yet he couldnot save a dime,rather went of spending spree,stole as much as could and depleted our reserves.
i will liken u to a hypocrite or an ignoramus.

This country is finished!

Let me see the hypocritical twit that will invoke GEJ. GEJ left office with naira to dollar at 210 and today it's almost 400 naira. GEJ inherited naira to dollar from Yaradua at 165, it stayed at this rate +/-15 for 4 yrs, it was only towards the end of 2014 that we began to see fall in naira largely caused by those who are bent on sabotaging his achievements to make sure he doesn't get re-elected. Compare dollar to naira loss in value under GEJ from 165 to 210 within 4-5 yrs span...that's very reasonable.

However under Buhari from 210-400 in barely 8 months? This is disastrous...an invitation to anarchy. Did you guys noticed that under Jonathan when naira depreciates, it appreciates back within few days. But under Buhar...it only depreciates. Don't forget that Obasanjo and Jonathan had strong, powerful economic team...this administration has zero. Very disorganized government! Emefiele resign honorably and let them run Nigeria like a private cattle ranch in Duara...everything to them is about tribalism.

Keep blaming GEJ and oil price until dollar hits 1000 Naira by July by the rate Naira is falling.

o boy as of today,dofficial rate of d dollar is 197.47naira per dollar.
black market rate i what u wailers are wailing abt.
pity u guys.

“There is inflation in all spheres of the economy and Nigerias are indeed

“Nigerians can no longer go on holidays abroad, the sick can no longer travel for treatments, and students who school cannot afford to pay their school fees.

“Investors are not willing to come into the country because the fall in naira keeps reducing the value of their holdings.”

its to early to complain.. Lets all enjoy the CHANGE WHILE IT LAST..... During the last election i advice my son who is 18 year old to vote for GEJ BUT HE RESISTED. Saying he want 'change'. Yesterday he was informing me that their busery(school fees) has incresed from 35k to 48k.. I should give hIM money TO GO AND PAY.... (i almost disown him.)for asking me money instead of his political father (PMB)whom has not paid me for the past 3months now.

people like u wit retrogressive mindset r d problem of dis country.
how dare talk abt holidays abroad! are u ok? what happend to obudu ranch,yankari game reserve?....it is people like dat dat have their wives deliver their children abroad and by drain puting unneccessary pressure on our reserves.ur taste for anything foreign is what drives dollar marketers to hoard and hike d price of d dollar.
d only word i have for u is to b patriotic and support local production and spending,so dat our naira can get balanced.

as of today d official rate is 1dollar is still 197.47naira
go and buy from @1dollar to 400naira if u jave d money and stop dis useles rants.

Rexology:

You are right on your projection that you will have a lot of cash in Naira should you change your dollars at the rate of #750/$, however, the value of that your seemly "a lot of cash" in naira will be TOO low. This is based on the economic principle that the value of money lies on what the money can buy at a given period and price, and NOT on the volume or amount of money.
You are not absolutely right, your theory applies to fixed income earners like civil servants & company workers whose salary remains static while inflation grows geometrically. I bet you, what he can buy when a dollar becomes 750 naira will be significantly far more than if it were to be say 280 naira! Infact due to drastically reduced purchasing power, people will be more willing to sell assets like lands, cars, houses etc to raise income while buyers wont be much which signifies low prices(supply>demand=low price). This is the best time to be abroad in a dollar/pound country!!

[b]....there are very many commentary on depreciation of ₦ nowadays expecially in parallel market, although parallel or black market can be manipulated by the traders, they either do it on their self interest, so those who doesn't beleive in the prosperity of nigeria can harbour $ as they can on imported goods hereby cause hike!
But in my own point of view the depreciation of ₦ is a great success to this nation if well manage to nigeria situation today. the looted fund is in $ and it must be refunded back in $, so if $1 is ₦198 when the money is looted, then if the money is refund today at $1 to ₦350 the nation has gained ₦152!
imagine if $1=₦1000, the gain is ₦902!
So in conclusion if the government managed to refund the $trillion looted and the refunded money, change it in parallel market, this will reduce the pressure on ₦ and the scarcity of $ in parallel market so the ₦=$.

(take note all the money took out of CBN during jonathan regime were changed in parallel market before ditributed)

But the problem is the government won't take the recovered funds to the market to change it, will they? So, this perspective of the matter can only benefit individuals and maybe, MAYBE so companies.

But it's a unique angle/perspective to the matter though.

I'm sure if we're to ask so many people here what they think is happening to our Naira, I'm sure they can't explain, even some so called graduate of economics and business management can't explain. Nigeria my country when all we know is to keep consuming imported goods, and now that our major source of (Dollar) income have reduced (crude oil) drastically, and we still expect CBN to keep releasing dollar to the public, hmm CBN better hold the dollar for now o...! Because what will happen when CBN keep releasing dollar to the black marketers is that, our foreign RESERVE will keep depreciating (before you know our account go empty especially now wey crude oil no get much value for world market, and na there we dey get most of this dollar from)
In conclusion, we better start consuming made in Nigeria products and Exporting thereby bringing in more dollars to the country.
Well if you're an entrepreneur here in Nigeria better days ahead for you. Because very soon government will stop the importation of so many things into the country. Which is good for us, suffer go dey small but it's the best for Us. Let's be more of producers than consumers.
Its true that we need to become a manufacturing economy, but this doesn't happen overnight its a very gradual process. The changes in CBN policies are too abrupt and shocking within a short period of time. And besides the government hasn't provided adequate infrastructure to foster massive local manufacturing.
