The Nigerian local currency, the naira, rallied across the currency markets on Thursday, driven by improved FX liquidity. In its daily FX report, the Central Bank reported that the spot FX rate rose by ₦1.49 to N1355.85 against the U.S. Dollar.

The naira showed remarkable strength, appreciating by 0.99% to close at ₦1,344.42 per dollar in the Nigerian Foreign Exchange Market (NFEM). This upward trend reflects a positive shift in currency sentiment within the regulated market, with foreign payments slowing relative to US dollar volume.
