Nigerian Naira to UAE Dirham exchange rate history
What moves the Nigerian Naira rate
The naira has been on a managed float since the 2023 NAFEM unification, which erased most of the old official-vs-parallel gap (30%-60% pre-2023, now 1%-3%). Watch CBN interventions, oil receipts and the parallel-market premium — that is what moves the rate day to day.
About the Nigerian Naira
The Nigerian Naira (NGN, ₦) is the official currency of Nigeria, issued by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) since 1973 when it replaced the Nigerian pound. Subdivided into 100 kobo, the Naira is one of Africa's most-traded currencies and the principal medium of exchange for the continent's largest economy. Since the CBN's 2023 unification of the parallel and official exchange rate windows through what it calls the NAFEM mechanism, the Naira has traded under market-driven pricing rather than the previous administered peg. Nigeria receives an estimated 20 billion USD a year in formal remittances, and for inbound flows to MTN MoMo PSB, OPay, PalmPay and Moniepoint the published Naira rate is now typically within 1%-3% of the parallel market — a sharp narrowing compared to the 30%-60% gaps that prevailed before unification.
