However, it appreciated at the official interbank window as it exchanged for N196.98 to the dollar as against its previous value of N197.
Meanwhile, traders at the parallel market expressed joy that business was booming as buyers of forex invaded the market due to their inability to meet the tight conditions at the BDC’s
