The official Nigerian Foreign Exchange Market rate published by the Central Bank of Nigeria stood near ₦1,345 to ₦1,346 per dollar, leaving a street premium of roughly ₦40 to ₦45, or about 3 percent.
Weekend quotes largely mirrored Friday’s close, with demand from importers, students and travellers remaining orderly rather than intense, supported by external reserves reported above $55 billion and steady oil receipts that have helped sustain official liquidity.
Quotes still differed slightly by location, volume and the time of day, and operators noted that the informal rate can shift before the close of business. The gap between the official window and the parallel market has stayed comparatively narrow by recent historical standards, yet cash transactions outside the banking system remain the practical benchmark for many users who cannot obtain dollars at the CBN rate.
Anyone planning an exchange was advised to confirm the live quote with a trusted bureau or dealer, because parallel-market prices are not uniform and can move on local supply and remittance inflows.
