The exchange rate of Naira to dollar stood at N540/$1, according to currency dealers at the NARCO wing of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport Ikeja, Lagos.
One dealer explained that when the dollar is in free fall, the rate is not stable but determined by a mix of market forces and bargaining power of dealers.
