Nnana stated that these domiciliary accounts is one of the reasons why US dollar has continued to increase against Nigeria Naira.

“The CBN will embark on aggressive liquidity mop-up to enable the naira regain confidence. The CBN will not sit down and watch the consistent fall of the naira. After the passage of the 2016 budget, the naira will begin to bounce back.
