ABUJA, March 30 (Reuters) - Nigeria's currency eased to 415
naira per dollar on the black market on Monday after President
Muhammadu Buhari ordered a lockdown of two of the country's
biggest cities to stop the spread of coronavirus.
The black market rate was much weaker than the official rate
of 360.50 naira, which was devalued by the central bank two
weeks ago. The currency hit 385.33 per dollar on the
over-the-counter spot market on Monday.
Buhari on Sunday ordered the cessation of movement in Lagos
and the capital Abuja for 14 days in an attempt to curb the
spread of the virus.
