How can it bring it down to 357 when he is smuggling so as to sell at 475? The only money that stabilizes naira is the one that goes through CBN,not smuggled currency. |

China's dream would be to have the chance to devalue their currency to our level without being called a currency manipulator and getting slammed with sanctions from US and EU.

You collect dollar loan to invest in Nigeria at 1$ to N300, but when it's time to pay back, it's 1$ to 500. Exchange rate stability is what is needed.
