Naira has fallen to a record low of N1,515 per dollar following strong demand on the parallel market, also known as the black market.

This represents 1.32% or N20.00 weaker than N1,495 it traded in the morning today according to Nairametrics tracker.

This despite analysts’ optimism that the new FX rules by the apex bank would shore up dollar supply from commercial banks and stabilise naira in the immediate .

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) had yesterday released a new circular addressing suspected cases of excessive foreign currency speculation and hoarding from Nigerian banks.

The current depreciation is unparalleled and stands as the lowest point in the historical performance of the Naira, reflecting the severity of the current economic challenges.

The land of Nigeria was soaked in blood during the reign of pmb due to nepotism , tribalism, sectionalism and all sorts . We saw the dire consequences in the nation.

Nigeria desperately needed a sense of healing , justice , equity and sanity so we could begin to santize the land and come out from the consequences of the blood shed.

Instead of that we are thrown into a group of criminals who hijacked the institutions, alter and remove the ancient landmark of the nation thereby desecrating the land.
And you are expecting life in the nation? You need to go wash your head.

If tinubu and shettima like, let them go sleep on papa Adeboye bed, with marathon fasting and night vigil, it will yield to nothing.

The dearth in the land are the consequences of desecrating the land.
Tinubu , his criminal gang of grab it and run with it politicians, the criminals in the judiciary, inec etc are major cause of the dearth in the land

For the nation to have a hope to revive, the altar desecrated must be repaired.
The desecrators of the land must leave.

Individuals here and there with clean hands, will do good, but as a nation, you are deceiving yourself.

Tinubu and his gang are operating with a cursed mandate. Nothing real can come from it. It will be renewed propagandas,empty noises, one step forward and 50 steps backwards.

Until the desecrators of the land are taken away, forget Nigeria.

Let them keep speculating and buying.

What would piss me off is if the Tinubu regime does not have an end game that will make those buying dollars and stocking it up, shed bitter tears of regret in the near term.

Even as a layman, I know series of actions I can take that would make cash dollars start appearing in refuse dumps in Nigeria as they would have become so useless to those stocking it up outside of the banking system, while those who have them in their domiciliary s will be offloading them within the approved banking currency exchange the sooner they get foreign remittances only into such s.

Anyways, they've been saying the same thing since last year yet it's the naira that continue to crash badly.

Foolish people!

Clears throat. Just reminding the sycophants of the promise made by Jagaban in April 2023.

The short term goal is 300 naira to the USD.

For those wondering wetin concern us with another man currency...
Nigeria produces almost nothing. Most things come from outside and outside deals with dollars. The higher it goes, the costlier the things you'll need to basically survive in the country.

On top of it, your naira income remains stagnant either from your work place or work hustle. If you could sustain your family with 70k monthly when babablu entered, today you'll need 150k.

For the greedy folks happy naira is falling coz they earn in Fx... Just know that even if dollar is 100 naira, you'll still buy your iPhone in naija for N140k. Your dollar will still have its value, but the naira falling will destroy the live of millions of Nigerians who hold a volatile currency like naira. If the naira increases, you with your dollar and the poor man will also have easier life.

Its not about having more naira when you change dollar, but about the purchasing power of the naira.

What do I know?
You all will still say "may the naira fall favour me and my family" when it favours no one.

Free falling. By this time next week, it will be 2k. This time next year, may be 10k. Demands for Forex by Nigerian students abroad and crypto guys alone is enough to continously weaken the naira. Those demands are huge.
Forex hoarders are there too. We're not even talking about genuine manufacturers and importers of goods.
