    Nigeria’s External Reserves Soar to $34.51 Billion, CBN Reports.

    The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has reported that the nation’s gross external reserves increased significantly, reaching $34.51 billion in February 2024. This is a significant financial development. Governor Olayemi Cardoso shared this information during the 293rd Monetary Policy Committee meeting held on Tuesday.

    Cardoso expounded on the favourable change, disclosing that as of February 20, the external reserves had increased from $32.23 billion at the end of January 2024 to $34.51 billion. He attributed this improvement to various factors, including reforms implemented in the foreign exchange market and a boost in oil production.

    The governor stated, “Gross external reserves stood at US$34.51 billion on February 20, 2024, compared with US$32.23 billion at end-January 2024. Reforms in the foreign exchange market and increased oil production, among other factors, were the main drivers of the improvement.”

    Notably, the CBN recently raised the monetary policy rate in the nation by 400 basis points to 22.75% in an effort to combat the escalating inflationary pressures in Nigeria. The National Bureau of Statistics had reported a surge in headline inflation to 29.90% in January 2024.

    This surge in external reserves reflects positive economic indicators, and stakeholders will be keenly observing how these developments impact the broader economic landscape in Nigeria.

    VP Shettima Tells Nigerians How to Protest Economic Hardship Created by Tinubu

    Vice-President Shettima Urges Responsible Protest Amid Economic Hardship.

     

    In a call for measured action, Vice-President Kashim Shettima has urged Nigerians to express their concerns about the prevailing economic challenges in a responsible and mature manner. Speaking during the 29th pre-Ramadan lecture organized by the University of Lagos Muslim Alumni in Lagos, Shettima emphasized the need for discretion amid the growing economic difficulties faced by the nation.

    The economic landscape shifted nine months ago when the Tinubu administration discontinued subsidies on petrol, aiming to redirect saved funds towards infrastructural expansion. Additionally, the administration unified foreign exchange rates, inadvertently causing collateral instability in the value of the Naira and amplifying the burden on Nigerians as food prices soared.

    Organised Labour, represented by the Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria, has responded with at least four strikes and numerous protests, attributing these actions to the government’s perceived failure in providing adequate measures to alleviate the hardship.

    However, Vice President Shettima has called for caution, stating, “We expect that Nigerians should express their feelings over our circumstances in a responsible and mature manner. We are also a deeply religious people, and we believe in the powers of faith and prayers.”

    Addressing the severe economic challenges anticipated during the approaching holy month of Ramadan, Shettima, represented by his Special Adviser on Political Matters, Dr Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, appealed to citizens not to interpret the hardships as punitive measures by the government. He acknowledged the hardships faced, attributing them to missed opportunities and failures in the past to capitalize on the nation’s great potential.

    Shettima stressed the necessity for a change in direction, stating, “We have to fix this country, and failure to do this is not an option. Our administration does not plan to make the lives of Nigerians more difficult. Nor do we intend to deceive fellow citizens that the change in direction and the expected outcome can be achieved without pain or sacrifices.”

    Recognizing the interconnected nature of Nigeria’s challenges, he called for solutions genuinely informed by a Nigerian context rather than external influences. Shettima appealed to alumni to support the administration in its efforts to turn the nation around, highlighting the importance of criticism and critical scrutiny in achieving progress.

    As citizens navigate these challenging times, Vice-President Shettima concluded with a prayer for relief from hardship and discipline in times of abundance during the upcoming Ramadan fast, emphasizing unity and collective resilience.

    Israeli Fighter Jet Spotted Over Abuja During Hamas Leader’s Visit? Fact Emerges

    Israeli Fighter Jet Over Abuja During Hamas Leader’s Visit? The Facts.

     

    Amid the backdrop of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, social media posts from February 2024 have been circulating a claim that a bomber jet was spotted over the skies of Abuja.

     

    The assertion suggests that the Israeli fighter jet’s purported presence was linked to the visit of Hamas leader Ghazi Hamad to Nigeria.

    In response to these claims, a fact-checking initiative delved into the matter to validate the reports of heightened tension in Abuja following the visit of the Palestinian group leader.

     

    Reports have surfaced on social media asserting that an Israeli bomber jet was sighted in the skies above Abuja. According to the posts, the fighter jet appeared after the reported presence of Hamas leader Ghazi Hamad and his associates in Abuja in February.

    One post reads:

    Breaking News: Israeli Bomber Jet Spotted Over Abuja Following Sighting of Hamas Leader in Nigeria’s Capital.

    “Tensions escalated in Abuja as reports emerged of an Israeli Bomber Jet flying across the city following the sighting of the leader of the Hamas wanted group in the Nigerian capital. “The presence of the jet in the skies above Abuja has raised concerns about potential military actions or security threats in the region.”

    This social media claim includes a link to the report and two images. The first photo displays Hamas’ delegation to Nigeria with two unidentified Africans, while the second picture shows an F-16 fighter jet.

     

    Ejes Gist Media reports that Hamad, who appeared on Nigerian broadcast station Channels Television on February 14, 2024, is a senior Hamas leader. The leaders of Hamas were in Abuja in February 2024 as part of the group’s diplomatic outreach to friendly African countries to increase international support.

    However, after scrutiny, a fact-checking platform, Africa Check, concluded that the photo of the jet circulated was old and unrelated to the claim. The platform ruled that the claim was false and should be disregarded.

     

    It’s crucial to remain vigilant about the information we consume and rely on credible sources for accurate news.

    100 Dollars To Naira in Black Market Today 2 March 2024

    100 dollars to naira black market today 2 March 2024 can be accessed below.

     

     

    Ejes Gist News Nigeria has obtained the official naira black market exchange rate in Nigeria today including the Black Market rates, Bureau De Change (BDC), and CBN rates.

     

    Please note that the exchange rate is subject to hourly fluctuations influenced by the supply and demand of dollars in the market. As of now, you can purchase 1 dollar at a certain rate now, however, it’s important to keep in mind that the rate can shift (either upwards or downwards) within hours.

     

    How much is 100 dollars to naira black market today 2 March 2024? = ₦161,000

    The black market, also known as the parallel market, opened with the local currency (abokiFx) at ₦1,510.00 per $1. Therefore, the current value of 100 dollars to naira on the black market is ₦151,000.

     

    Dollar to Naira (USD to NGN) Black Market Exchange Rate Today
    Buying Rate of $1 ₦1,580
    Selling Rate of $1 ₦1,610

     

    The difference between the black market rate and the official rate is called the parallel market premium. The parallel market premium indicates the degree of divergence between the official and unofficial markets, and reflects the level of confidence in the naira and the CBN’s policies.

    Factors Influencing Foreign Exchange Rates

    Here are some of the causes of the dwindling dollar-to-naira exchange rate.

    Inflation Rates: It is well known that inflation directly impacts black market exchange rates. If the Nigerian economy can be stabilized and inflation is controlled, the naira will benefit; however, if the naira continues to fall, it may indicate that food and other necessities are becoming more expensive daily.

     

    Interest Rates: Another tool to keep an eye on is interest rates. If the interest rate at which banks lend money rises, it would harm the economy, causing it to contract and, as a result, the value of the naira to fall.

    Government Debt: National debt can impact investor confidence and, as a result, the influx of funds into the economy. If inflows are high, the naira exchange rate will rise in favour of the naira.

    Speculators: Speculators frequently impact the naira-to-dollar exchange rate. They stockpile money in anticipation of a gain, causing the naira to plummet even lower.

    Conditions of Trade: Favorable trade terms will increase the value of the naira to the dollar, although Nigeria is currently experiencing a trade deficit. Everything comes from China, India, and the majority of Asian countries.

     

    Our Disclaimer: Ejes Gist News NIGERIA does not set or determine forex rates. The official NAFEX rates are obtained from the website of the FMDQOTC  and the banks rate are varies.

    Nwabali Breaks Silence On Union Saint-Gilloise Transfer Rumours

    Nigeria’s External Reserves Soar to $34.51 Billion, CBN Reports.

    The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has reported that the nation’s gross external reserves increased significantly, reaching $34.51 billion in February 2024. This is a significant financial development. Governor Olayemi Cardoso shared this information during the 293rd Monetary Policy Committee meeting held on Tuesday.

    Cardoso expounded on the favourable change, disclosing that as of February 20, the external reserves had increased from $32.23 billion at the end of January 2024 to $34.51 billion. He attributed this improvement to various factors, including reforms implemented in the foreign exchange market and a boost in oil production.

    The governor stated, “Gross external reserves stood at US$34.51 billion on February 20, 2024, compared with US$32.23 billion at end-January 2024. Reforms in the foreign exchange market and increased oil production, among other factors, were the main drivers of the improvement.”

    Notably, the CBN recently raised the monetary policy rate in the nation by 400 basis points to 22.75% in an effort to combat the escalating inflationary pressures in Nigeria. The National Bureau of Statistics had reported a surge in headline inflation to 29.90% in January 2024.

    This surge in external reserves reflects positive economic indicators, and stakeholders will be keenly observing how these developments impact the broader economic landscape in Nigeria.
