However, the Naira has depreciated to N1,534.8 per dollar in the Nigerian Foreign Exchange Market (NFEM), according to data published by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). The CBN data showed that the exchange rate for the Naira rose to N1,534.8 per dollar from N1,530 per dollar last week Friday, indicating a depreciation of N4.8 for the Naira.

The depreciation in the NFEM may put pressure on businesses that import goods and services, as they may have to pay more Naira to acquire the same amount of dollars. Despite this, the margin between the parallel market and NFEM rate has narrowed to N15.2 per dollar from N30 per dollar last weekend. This development suggests a slight convergence in the exchange rates between the two markets.

However, the depreciation of the Naira in the NFEM may still pose challenges for businesses and individuals that rely on imports. As the situation continues to unfold, market watchers will be keeping a close eye on the Naira’s performance in both the parallel market and the NFEM.
