The official Nigerian Foreign Exchange Market rate published by the Central Bank of Nigeria stood near ₦1,346 to ₦1,348 per dollar, leaving a street premium of about ₦40 to ₦45, or roughly 3 percent.
Demand from importers, students and travellers remained orderly rather than intense, supported by external reserves reported above $55 billion and steady oil receipts that have helped sustain official liquidity.
Quotes differed slightly by location, trading volume and time of day, and dealers noted that the informal rate can shift before the close of business.
The gap between the official window and the parallel market remains narrow by recent historical standards. Cash transactions outside the banking system nonetheless 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, as parallel-market prices are not uniform and can move with local supply and remittance inflows.
