Hi Mr Emma, please what is makes black market rate higher than the official CBN rate? Why can’t buyers buy from the bank?
Banks don’t sell dollar. How do you expect black market exchange rate to be the same with the official CBN rate and you still called it “black market”.
Please can you suggest a widget that shows the daily conversion rates for dollar to naira, thanks.
Hello Aboki,
You can try live exchange rate widget. It shows daily conversion rate (official bank exchange rate) not only for dollar to naira but also other currencies. You need to reset the code to your choice and then paste it on you website.
