The gap between the official and parallel market rates continued to reflect sustained demand for foreign exchange in Nigeria’s import, travel and business sectors.
Financial analysts have continued to urge Nigerians to rely on official channels for foreign exchange transactions, while businesses closely monitor movements in the market due to the impact on prices of goods and services.
The Naira has experienced fluctuations in recent months amid ongoing reforms in the foreign exchange market and efforts by the Federal Government and the Central Bank of
Nigeria to improve liquidity and stabilise the currency.
Currency traders also noted that demand for the Dollar remained high among importers, international students and travellers, contributing to the pressure on the local currency.

Meanwhile, economic observers say future movements in the exchange rate may depend on foreign inflows, oil revenue performance and monetary policy decisions by the apex bank.
