The Central Bank of Nigeria further intervened on the state of foreign exchange on Tuesday with the injection of another $280 million into sectors of the economy including Business Travel Allowance, Personal Travel Allowance, medical bills and tuition and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), which received $100m.
In a statement by its Acting Director, Corporate Communications Department, Mr. Isaac Okorafor, the CBN also added that it had commenced the weekly sale of $20,000 to Bureau De Change (BDC) operators.
