He said the dealers will have value for their respective bids on Friday, March 24, 2017.

He disclosed that while the highest and marginal bid rates were N330/$1 and N320/$1, respectively, Okorafor said no intervention was made by the Bank to meet requests for invisibles on Thursday.

CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele, at the post-Monetary Policy Committee briefing had assured that the Bank will sustain its forex intervention in the interbank market.
