The\u00a0 Naira yesterday\u00a0 depreciated\u00a0 to N1,426 per dollar in the parallel market from N1,420 per dollar on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

But the naira appreciated to N1,373.5 per dollar in the Nigerian Foreign Exchange Market,\u00a0 NFEM .Data\u00a0 from the Central Bank of Nigeria,\u00a0 CBN, showed that the indicative exchange rate for the naira fell to N1,373.5 per dollar from N1,390.5 per dollar on Tuesday ,\u00a0 reflecting\u00a0 N17 appreciation for the naira.\u00a0<\/p>\n
