Naira depreciates to ₦1,395/$ in parallel market
The naira weakened against the United States dollar on Monday, dropping to ₦1,395 per dollar in the parallel market from ₦1,386 recorded last Friday.
The local currency also lost value in the Nigerian Foreign Exchange Market (NFEM), where it traded at an indicative rate of ₦1,385 per dollar.
Figures released by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) showed that the official exchange rate increased from ₦1,384 per dollar at the close of trading last weekend to ₦1,385 per dollar, indicating a ₦1 depreciation in the value of the naira.
Consequently, the margin between the parallel and official markets widened to N9 per dollar from N2 per dollar last week Friday.
