Dollar to Naira exchange rate update – September 23, 2026
VIA NAIJA NEWS:
The naira maintained its position against the US dollar in official trading on Tuesday, September 22, 2026, even as the parallel market told a different story.
Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) data showed a slight appreciation from Monday’s rate, while the black market recorded a wider gap.
| Market | Tuesday (22/09) | Monday (21/09) |
|---|---|---|
| Official (CBN) | ₦1,327.78/$1 | ₦1,329.80/$1 |
| Parallel (Black Market) | ₦1,389/$1 | — |
Rates from commercial banks, BDCs, and other forex dealers may vary due to transaction charges and prevailing supply-demand dynamics.
Analysts say the naira’s ability to sustain recent gains will depend on continued forex inflows, dollar demand, and CBN policy direction in the weeks ahead.
