Naira freefall: EFCC raids BDC operators in Abuja, arrests 50
Dayyabu Mistila, a Bureau De Change operator in Wuse Zone 4, disclosed this to News Direct on Monday.
According to Mistila, the operatives said the raid was because of the rising exchange rate of the US dollar and other currencies against the Naira at the forex market.
“Around 3 pm on Monday, officers of EFCC raided Wuse Zone 4 and arrested over 50 of our members. They were complaining that BDC operators are responsible for the rising exchange rate of the Dollar, the parallel exchange market”.
When asked the rate of Dollar to Naira on Monday, he told our Correspondent that it traded for N1,660 per Dollar.
Similarly, official FMDQ data showed that Naira dropped to N1574.62 per US dollar on Monday.
Efforts to speak with the spokesperson, Dele Olyewale, were unsuccessful at the time of filing this report.
