The naira has in over 18 months remained stable at both the official and parallel markets despite several odds facing it ahead of the 2019 general elections, President, Association of Bureaux De Change Operators of Nigeria (ABCON), Alhaji (Dr.) Aminu Gwadabe has said.


Speaking to journalists in Lagos, the ABCON boss commended the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) financial sector reforms, and the contributions of the Bureau de Change (BDC) operators to the current exchange rate stability, as against the common practice of currency devaluations and depreciations across the world at election times.

The naira exchanges at N306/$1 in the official market and N358/$ in the parallel market despite the election fears.
