The fall of the currency came on a day that the president-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu travelled to Europe on a trip his media team is aimed at meeting with foreign investors and other strategic partners towards pushing through his renewed hope programme for the country.

Besides falling against the dollar, the naira also fell against the British Pound Sterling and the Euro in the black market.

GWG.ng reports that the depreciation of the naira against the dollar and other major currencies in the black market today, Wednesday May 10, 2023 is distinct from trading in the official markets as supervised by the Central Bank of Nigeria.

GWG.ng reports that the value of any nation’s currency is determined by aggregate supply and demand.

The forces of Supply and demand are themselves influenced by a number of factors, including interest rates, inflation, capital flow, and money supply.

The most common method to value currency is through exchange rates. The two main exchange rate systems are fixed rate and floating rate systems.

However, in determining the value of the dollar and other major currencies to the naira at the black market as it is today, May 10, 2023, one may go beyond the textbook definitions as outlined above.
