The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on Tuesday confirmed $553 million in remittance inflows to the country for July.
The CBN’s Acting Director of Corporate Communications, Mrs. Hakama Sidi-Ali, said in a statement in Abuja the remittances represent a 130 percent increase from the corresponding period in 2023.
Sidi-Ali said the figure represented the highest monthly total inflows on record and reflected the ongoing efforts by the apex bank to enhance liquidity in Nigeria’s foreign exchange market.
