As of October 20th, 2023, the Nigerian Naira has reached an unprecedented all-time low against the US Dollar, based on information sourced from black market foreign exchange operators.

The exchange rate in the black market now stands at an average purchase rate of N1,145 to $1, while the selling rate is at N1,155 to $1.
