Meanwhile, the exchange rate at the parallel market remained stable at N590 to a dollar. This is according to information obtained from BDCs operating in Nigeria.

On the other hand, the naira fell significantly against the US dollar on Tuesday morning at the peer-to-peer market, trading at N600.5/$1 compared to N594/$1 recorded as of the same time the previous day.

Nigeria’s external reserve depreciated by 0.15% on Friday, 6th May to stand at $39.31 billion, compared to $39.37 billion recorded as of the previous day. The decline in the external reserve level can be attributed to the continuous intervention by the Central Bank in the FX market in order to ensure the stability of the local currency.
