JUST IN: Customers stranded as Abuja black market traders close shops

By Samuel Oamen

Customers seeking to buy or sell dollars were on Thursday, February 1, stranded as the Foreign exchange black market operators in Abuja, including those at the bustling Wuse Zone 4 market, abruptly stopped trading.

Many customers were sent back by the union’s Task Force.

The Nation observed that the association’s Task Force was all out to ensure compliance and arrest BDC operators selling or buying forex.

Major areas for sourcing foreign exchange in Abuja such as the Zone 4 Plaza, Musawa Plaza, Bulama House, Fabdal Plaza and Baura House are all closed for business the Nation observed.

The traders attributed their decision to instructions from their union and a significant depreciation of the Naira against the US dollar at the official market.
