Which banks? Pls ask him how many customers that he sold forex to when he was Zenith Bank MD? Nigeria is jumping from frying pan into fire!

Confused company 😡

Invest in the USD if you're wise, this administration will continue to create policies to make the USD stronger, USD rate official/parallel was 197/230 in 2015 when they took over, today it's 410/520.

The level of confusion with Emefiele and Buharis govt is worthy of urgent psychiatrist attention.

Nothing changed because BDC and banks are working together except there's proper monitoring by cenbank and anti-graft agencies. We are at square one.

I think CBN can reverse their policy of not giving money to BDCs, they can give them but not at that unbelievably cheap rate that makes them make millions of naira per week. CBN can give them their weekly allocation with a margin of N2 at most. It's ok if they make 100k per $10k

No direction at all with financial policies because offices there are being occupied by incompetent abokis

Emefulefu is just busy dishing Garba Shehu/Arewa's orders to the detriment of Nigerians. When last did CBN gave Agric loan or SME loan zero interest after SURE-P? Gov of Economic Disaster is personified in Emefulefu cenbank

This is strategy Egypt used to arrest thier Dollar/Egyptian pounds disparity. Good move. We pray for its sustainability.

This is sign that Nigeria about to break up go and change your naira to dollars YorubaNationNow oduduwanationnow

Na today this order was passed. No banks ever sells dollars, they will voraciously buy

If CBN can liscence BDCs why can't they regulate them also. Magomago govt.

They said CBN has a toll free hotline for FOREX customers. Please help us with that. Thanks

Na only una Waka come

Hmmm.
