Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The naira appreciated significantly against the dollar at the foreign exchange market to end the week on a good after several days of depreciation.<\/p>\n

FMDQ data showed that the naira gained to N1600.78 per dollar on Friday from N1660.49 exchanged on Thursday. This represents an N59.71 appreciation.<\/p>\n

The development comes as FX transactions increased to $350.72 million on Friday from $330.18 million on Thursday.<\/p>\n

This comes after three days of depreciation against the dollar.<\/p>\n

In the week under review, the naira had appreciated twice and depreciated thrice at the official FX market.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, at the parallel market, the naira fell to N1725 per dollar on Friday from N1705 recorded the previous day.<\/p>\n

In the past months, the naira has continued to fluctuate against the dollar at the FX market despite interventions by the Central Bank of Nigeria.<\/p>\n

Olayemi Cardoso, the Central Bank governor, recently said a weak naira is advantageous with adequate investment into the country.<\/p>\n
