The naira opened trading on Monday, July 7, 2025, with slight volatility against the US dollar across both official and unofficial foreign exchange markets. Market watchers report moderate shifts in buying and selling prices as forex supply remains constrained.

The dollar exchanged at an average rate of ₦1,547.70 per $1 on major online currency platforms early today, reflecting fluctuations in demand and supply dynamics over the past week.

Official Market Rate As of Monday morning, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) was yet to update its official foreign exchange rate for the day. However, in recent weeks, the CBN rate has hovered close to market-driven benchmarks, following ongoing reforms in the forex regime.

Previous CBN NFEM benchmark: ₦1,523–₦1,530 per USD Today’s unofficial online average: ₦1,547.70 per USD The Federal Government continues to implement monetary policies aimed at stabilising the exchange rate amid inflation and declining external reserves.

Summary Table – July 7, 2025 Market Segment Buy (₦) Sell (₦) CBN Official Rate N/A N/A Parallel Market 1,555 1,580 Bureau De Change (BDC) 1,550 1,575 Online Transfer Rate 1,547.70 1,547.70 What’s Driving the Rate? Analysts attribute today’s naira depreciation to: –

Limited forex inflow from oil exports and remittances. Persistent inflation, currently over 30%, eroding currency value. Demand pressure from importers, students, and travelers.

The Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) has urged the federal government to improve dollar liquidity by diversifying revenue and boosting exports. Forex Forecast Experts predict that unless the CBN intervenes with fresh liquidity or Nigeria records higher foreign inflows, the naira may continue to depreciate gradually in both official and parallel markets. Investors and traders are advised to monitor market movements closely and make use of reliable transfer platforms offering competitive exchange rates.

L:R: Director General of PTAD, Mrs Tolulope Odunaiya in a warm handshake with the Minister of Finance, Mr Taiwo Oyedele in Abuja.

The Honourable Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr. Taiwo Oyedele, has reaffirmed his commitment to improving the welfare of Nigerian pensioners with the successful disbursement of ₦39.63 billion to 24,814 eligible Defined Benefit Scheme (DBS) pensioners, ending years of anxious waiting for thousands of retirees.

Working under the supervision of the Federal Ministry of Finance, the Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD) carried out the payments following the Minister’s directive to prioritise the settlement of verified pension liabilities, bringing relief to beneficiaries across the country.

Mr. Oyedele said the payment reflects the administration’s determination to ensure that retired public servants receive the benefits they earned through decades of dedicated service.

“A nation that values service must also honour those who gave their productive years in its service. This payment is about people, not just figures. It is about restoring confidence, rewarding sacrifice and giving thousands of pensioners and their families the reassurance that they have not been forgotten.”

The Minister explained that the disbursement covered three categories of outstanding pension obligations that had accumulated over the years.

According to him, PTAD paid ₦25,053,703,604.12 to clear the outstanding 35-month pension liability owed to 9,675 eligible Defined Benefit Scheme pensioners of the defunct NITEL/MTEL.

The Directorate also disbursed ₦9,481,886,576.53, representing the initial 50 per cent payment of the Back End Computation (BEC) arrears due to 3,959 eligible PHCN Defined Benefit Scheme pensioners.

In addition, PTAD paid ₦5,094,784,054.27, representing the outstanding 50 per cent balance of the 10.66 per cent and 12.95 per cent pension increment arrears due to 11,180 eligible Defined Benefit Scheme pensioners of the defunct Assurance Bank, NICON Insurance, NITEL and People’s Bank of Nigeria.

For many of the beneficiaries, the payments mark the end of years of uncertainty. They provide the means to meet pressing family needs, pay medical bills, support loved ones and enjoy retirement with greater peace of mind.

Mr. Oyedele said government remains mindful of the real lives behind every pension payment.

“Behind every approved payment is a retiree who served this country faithfully, a family that has waited patiently and a story that deserves a positive ending. We will continue to support measures that improve the lives of our senior citizens while maintaining fiscal discipline and accountability.”

The Minister commended the management and staff of PTAD for the prompt implementation of the directive, describing the successful disbursement as evidence of what can be achieved when institutions work together in the public interest.

“PTAD has demonstrated professionalism in implementing this exercise. The Ministry will continue to provide the policy direction and support required to strengthen pension administration and ensure that verified obligations are settled as resources become available.”

The Director-General of PTAD, Mrs. Tolulope Odunaiya, said the Directorate remained focused on delivering efficient pension administration and expressed appreciation to the Honourable Minister for his leadership and support, which made the release and prompt disbursement of the funds possible.

The latest payment represents another important step in the Federal Government’s efforts to improve the welfare of retirees and ensure that public institutions deliver meaningful outcomes for Nigerians under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
