Akabueze’s confidence in the naira’s fortification stems from the government’s belief in the efficacy of its policies. These policies are presumably aimed at enhancing foreign exchange inflows, thereby boosting the supply of dollars in the country.JAMB Portal

He said, “The N750/$ exchange rate in the 2024 budget is possible. We may begin the year with a little higher amount but if all that the Central Bank of Nigeria says it would do is put in place, as well as other things, we should expect to see a significant increase in the supply of foreign exchange in the economy in 2024.

“If the supply increases, the naira will strengthen. Our focus is on what we can do to stimulate the flow of foreign exchange into the economy.”
