Meanwhile, Alhaji Aminu Gwadabe, President, Association of Bureau De Change Operators of Nigeria (ABCON), said in spite of the depletion of the external reserves, the commitment of the CBN to maintain exchange rate stability was not in doubt.
”Our reserves still cover more than three years of our imports.
”We are in good position and besides with the strained relationship between Iran and USA, we are likely going to witness soaring oil prices.
”The diversification and ban on 41 items is still helping the reserve,” Gwadabe said.
The ABCON chief expressed optimism that the remaining four months period to election could not significantly distort the sustained exchange rate stability .
He said that the CBN was determined to deal appropriately with any act of misbehaviour and wrong doing in the market.
”The CBN is adopting both supervision and market intelligence to effectively regulate the market,” Gwadabe added.
