Naira falls as dollar demand rises

Increasing demand for the dollar at the parallel market on Thursday resulted in the rise of the greenback currency to N390 from N370 on Wednesday in Abuja.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Naira also depreciated against the Euro, exchanging at N400, from N390 on Wednesday.
The Naira, however, appreciated against the Pound Sterling, trading at N465 from N470 on Wednesday.
A Bureau de Change (BDC) operator, who preferred anonymity, attributed the rise in the dollar exchange rate to the present high demand for the currency.
