Ykc2:They don't like the treatment they got not that they pray the country fails. And I have not told you that Nigeria is failing because of people's negative prayer. I'm only stating that it's an obvious evil and unpatriotic behavior. |

delpee:If goverment and politicians do not do what you suggest, is it then the average struggling Nigerian that should do so? Abi is the average Nigerian able to afford to send his kids to school in Canada, us, UK at huge demand on forex? Is it the ordinary Nigerian that warehoused billions during the last elections but could not use it due to Emefieles new naira notes, and now change the cash to forex there by depleting all the dollars? Is it the average Nigerian that imported 450 Toyota suvs at $150k each? Is it the ordinary Nigerian drinking "40year old" imported whiskey? Tell the people in goverment living large lifestyles to rather reduce their taste for foreign goods. Has oga at the top not gone to France on personal visit on which he will blow forex, is is son not presently in UK and France (davidos concert) on private jet levels also blowing dollars, euros and pounds? |

Nigeria with paper and classroom policies that doesn’t work. I have said this before, the way to strengthen the Naira are, note that we are import oriented country. 1. Only banks to do exchange and sell. 2. BDC to only operates at the airport and at the end of the day turn all exchanges to the central bank with printed documents to show what they did. 3. All illegal foreign exchange transactions are punishable to some years in prison. 4. Reduce wasteful importation, give permits to only necessary importation, ban all foreign car importation for ten years to strengthen the local industries. 5. Encourage and support local manufacturing, storage of perishable goods and export. 6. Never, never allow anyone to seize peoples foreign account money as it’s rumored, most of those money are wire transfers from Nigerians overseas and not stolen, encourage them to do their exchanges at the bank with same black market exchanges until you stop all BDC exchanges other than banks. 2 Likes |

I am beginning to feel that the Naira fall could be part of government plan to discourage import, encourage export and make more Naira income. Why would cbn raise the import duty dollar rate from 700+ to 900+ in November 2023 and then again to 1300+ in January 2024 if not that it is a deliberate thing. Now, is when our economy will know the real foreign investors who is genuinely interested in developing and being part of Nigeria market because any company opening in Nigeria at this time know that the company won't be able to repatriate it's capital back now until Nigeria's foreign exchange earnings improves in the future. |

The quantity of Dollars in Nigeria is enough to bring down the pressure on naira.. But believe me from tinubu to his deputy to all his aids, Each Governor, minister, house members, directors senior civil servants, LG chairmen, councillors etc has a bunker where they are storing dollars. Absolutely nothing anyone can do to rescue naira from these criminals EXCEPT raid their homes and apartments. 2 Likes |

seguno2: Why is the Naira falling? Because there is speculative purchase of dollars. Why is there speculative purchase? because people feel it wil continue to go lower and so it feeds on itself. There is forex in the system, the problem is people are buying dollars not to purchase anything but to preserve their wealth, this is because we have dom accounts, so you can buy dollars and do nothing with it. Meanwhile those who have legitimate need for dollars are competeting with those who just want to buy dollars to put in their dom accounts. The frenzy has started, Naira can easily hit N4000:$1. The only way to stop the slide is to ban dom accounts at which point the only people buying dollars will be those who have legitimate businesses and those willing to store in cash. Mark it down that I said it here, the only solution and the only point at which the decline will stop is when dom accounts are banned. Our yearly import bills are less than the yearly forex inflows (official and unofficial) so clearly this decline in Naira is speculation and hoarding. 4 Likes |

A serious country would take advantage of its diversity because of the broader problem solving perspective that comes with a diverse team. Does it mean other ethnic groups in Nigeria cannot occupy any of these sensitive positions? |

casualobserver:What about those trading the naira against the dollar on crypto platforms like binance? I think they're the main culprit because their rate determines the black market rate |
Re: Edun, Cardoso, Olukoyede In Fresh Bid To Rescue Naira by casualobserver: 6:27pm On Feb 03 |
Queseda: I do not like to comment on things I know nothing about. I am no expert on Crypto, binance and all that…..however I wouldn’t worry about them because they are temporary people…when they buy, they must sell to crystallize their profit so the net effect is negligible unlike the dom account holder who buys dollars and keeps his money permanently in dollars. The trader creates demand when he buys and then creates a supply when he sells but the dom account holder is a hoarder, he creates demand but never sells….I may be wrong. If I were to guess I would say they are trading based on the hoarding patterns of the dom account holders. 3 Likes |

delpee: The thing is, even if we patronise local producers, they'll still have to source things abroad For example, I have a guy that does shoes and sandals for me, but the price has increased, because the cost of leather (which is imported) has gone up Local rice is increasing in price because they have to source for paddy from abroad (there was a news about this on Nairaland) Truth is, there ain't many production industries in Nigeria again... What exactly are we producing that can alternate for the things we're importing (not even toothpick) |

Queseda: There may be traders with don accounts but the true dom account holder is someone who has realized as far back as 2015-2019 that investing in property or stocks in Nigeria contrary to popular belief is a destroyer of wealth. Whereas Naira value may go up if you convert to dollars you likely lost money. So many professionals have resorted to investing abroad or keeping their money in dollar dom accounts. When they earn in Naira and convert to dollars, the money remains in dollars. Most of these people earn enough in Naira not to need to convert any of their dollars to Naira. The currency trader on the other hand buys and sells so he creates demand and supply of dollars. But I believe they are simply following the direction dictated by the dom holders. So long as the dom holders are holding and not selling, Naira will continue falling. Again I am no expert. 2 Likes |
