The naira has depreciated further against the dollar as the demand for it intensifies leaving many people in more hardship.
The naira has tumbled further at the parallel market to exchange at
N490 to dollar on Monday. It had closed at N485 to a dollar on Friday
last week.
It was gathered that the latest depreciation of the naira is as a result of the strong demand for the greenback.
A trader attributed the high dollar demand observed in the parallel
market to the activities of importers who have to make payments to
bring in goods for end of year sales.
Meanwhile, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has asked banks to submit bids for a “special currency auction” to clear the backlog of matured outstanding dollar obligations for selected sectors of the economy, traders said on Monday.
The central bank instructed commercial lenders to submit backlog
dollar demand from fuel importers, airlines, raw materials and machinery
for manufacturing firms and agricultural chemicals by 1500 GMT for a
special forex intervention, Reuters disclosed.
Traders said the central bank plans to sell “funded forwards of two
to five months tenor” dollars to the targeted sectors at an auction
ahead of the closure of the forex market for the year.
The central bank is expected to close all foreign exchange
transactions this Friday ahead of its financial year end and the
Christmas period. The naira currency has traded around N305.5 to the
dollar on the official interbank market since August.
Two weeks ago, the bank had asked commercial lenders to submit bids
for a special intervention auction targeting fuel importers, but the
result of the auction has not yet been released, traders said.
On Monday, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation said it had
imported about 38.7 million litres of aviation fuel, which it said “represented about 26-day sufficiency”, as part of its “ensure a hitch-free air travel across the country during and after the yuletide period”.
