The gain followed four days of slight depreciation between Monday and Thursday.

On Monday, March 24, the naira closed at N1,531.19 per dollar. On Tuesday, it traded at N1,532.39, and on Wednesday, it exchanged at N1,537.62.

Despite these slight losses, the naira has remained relatively stable against the dollar since December 2024, due to the CBN’s reforms promoting transparency in the foreign exchange market.
