“Our FX market is experiencing robust activities with turnover reaching levels not seen in over seven years. But the CBN chief is not carried away by this and is well aware of the challenges facing the nation’s economy including the rising inflation rate.However, we remain vigilant, recognizing the challenges that persist, such as elevated inflation driven by rising food prices, transportation costs, and energy expenses. We note that inflation though rising is doing so at a decelerated rate and we are confident will soon commence a fall,” Cardoso said.
