The
naira dropped against the United States dollar from 498 to 500 at the
parallel market during the early trading hours on Monday, crossing
the critical threshold currency analysts had predicted.
The
local unit, however, reversed the loss during the intra-day trading
and closed at 498/dollar.
The naira has been under persistent pressure as scarcity of the greenback continued to hit the market.
At
the official market, the local unit closed at 305/dollar. Economic
experts and currency analysts are divided over the outlook for the
naira this year.
