Nigerian Naira to Ghanaian Cedi exchange rate history
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.
About the Ghanaian Cedi
The Ghanaian Cedi (GHS, ₵) is the official currency of Ghana, issued by the Bank of Ghana. The current Cedi is the third iteration of the currency: it was reintroduced in July 2007 at a rate of 1 new Cedi for 10,000 old Cedis as part of a redenomination intended to simplify accounting and restore confidence in the unit. Subdivided into 100 pesewas, the Cedi has depreciated notably against the USD over the 2020s amid commodity-price volatility and inflation pressures. Ghana is a major gold and cocoa exporter, and Cedi liquidity often tracks commodity revenue cycles. For diaspora flows to MTN MoMo Ghana, AirtelTigo Money and Telecel Cash, the formal-channel Cedi rate sits close to interbank because Ghana's interbank market is comparatively deep and the abolition of the E-Levy in April 2025 removed a transaction-tax layer.
