Central Bank of Nigeria CBN has decided to now sell shorter-dated dollar for future transaction in a bid to inject liquidity into the official foreign exchange market in order to enhance the value of the naira.

The CBN will auction $100 million that will be settled between one week and 30 days, as against sixty-day contracts previously.
