A Bureau de Change operator in Wuse Zone 4, Abuja, Abubakar Alhasan, confirmed that traders were buying dollars at ₦1,620 and selling at ₦1,625 on Tuesday.
Similarly, in the official foreign exchange market, the naira showed an upward trend, closing at ₦1,522.28 per dollar on Tuesday, up from ₦1,533.63 on Monday. This represents a ₦11 gain in just 24 hours.
The recent rise in the naira’s value follows the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) release of a new foreign exchange (FX) code on Monday.
Analysts believe that this new policy may be helping to stabilize the currency, boosting investor confidence and improving liquidity in the market.
