Nigeria's forex crisis has defied the Central Bank of Nigeria's recent reforms as the Naira closed trading at a record low of N848.12 per dollar on the official market on Tuesday. FMDQ's official data on its website said that the country's currency continued to depreciate as dollar shortages persisted. The N848.

12/$1 forex exchange rate on Tuesday is 9 per cent lower than the closing rate of N778/$ on Monday, representing the biggest single-day decline this month. The currency also fell to a low of N1,050 per dollar on the parallel market amid strong demand for dollars.
