At the official foreign exchange market on Wednesday, the naira saw a sharp increase in value relative to the dollar. 

The naira increased from N1,592.06 to N1543.84 per dollar on Wednesday, according to FMDQ data. This is a noteworthy appraisal of N48.22. Subsequent investigation revealed that this is the official market's first naira gain of the week.
