About the Sierra Leonean Leone
The Sierra Leonean Leone (SLL or SLE, Le) is the official currency of Sierra Leone, issued by the Bank of Sierra Leone. The Leone was redenominated in July 2022, with three zeros removed: 1,000 old Leones became 1 new Leone. The new ISO code SLE is the technically correct one for the post-redenomination unit, though many platforms still use the legacy SLL. The currency is subdivided into 100 cents. Sierra Leone runs a market-determined floating exchange rate, and the Leone has been pressured by the country's deep import dependency and post-pandemic fiscal stress. For diaspora flows from the UK and US to Orange Money Sierra Leone and the Africell Money platform, formal-channel rates typically lag the interbank reference by a wider margin than in larger African markets due to thinner FX liquidity.
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.
