Naira strengthens, gains N29.89 against US dollar

The Nigerian Naira closed the week on a positive note, appreciating by N29.89 against the US Dollar in the official market.

According to data from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), the Naira traded at N1,517.93 per dollar on Friday, reflecting a 1.9% increase from Thursday’s closing rate of N1,547.82.

The currency’s recovery comes after a period of decline since March 5, offering a sign of relative stability. In recent months, the Naira has traded within a range of N1,500 to N1,900 against the dollar across both official and parallel markets.

This uptick suggests ongoing efforts to stabilize the currency may be yielding results, as market watchers remain hopeful for sustained improvements.
