A survey conducted by Newsonline Nigeria at the Bureau De Change (BDC) market in Ogba area of Lagos, Nigeria’s commercial city, on Thursday evening, December 16, 2021, showed that the naira to pounds exchanged at N775/ £1, failing to maintain the N725 position of 1 pound to naira it started the week with.

 

The exchange rate between pound to dollar and pounds to naira on Thursday evening, December 16, showed that the Nigerian official currency, Naira has fallen against the British pounds losing N50 to trade at N775 per pounds from the N725 per pounds it opened this week with.

Even though the pounds to naira opened at the parallel market (black market) at ₦775 per £1, Newsonline reports that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) does not recognise the parallel market, otherwise known as the black market. The apex bank has therefore directed anyone who requires forex to approach their bank, insisting that the I&E window is the only known exchange.
