EKO HOT BLOG reports that findings show that the Dollar to Naira exchange rate at the Lagos parallel market stood at ₦1400 per dollar for selling and ₦1390 per dollar for buying on Saturday, April 25, 2026, according to Bureau De Change operators.
The Central Bank of Nigeria has continued to maintain that it does not recognise the parallel market. The apex bank has advised individuals seeking foreign exchange to transact through official banking channels.
However, despite this directive, the black market remains widely used due to limited access to foreign currency through official sources and ongoing demand pressures in the economy.
