Dollar to Naira Exchange Rate Today, October 1, 2025 — Parallel and Official Market Update

The Nigerian naira posted mixed moves on Wednesday, October 1, 2025, with slight gains in the parallel market offset by mild weakness in the official foreign exchange window. Parallel Market (Black Market) ₦1,500/$1 — naira strengthened from ₦1,505/$1 earlier in the week. ₦2,075/£1 — pound sterling rate. ₦1,665/€1 — euro rate. Traders linked the recovery to improved dollar inflows from diaspora remittances, independent supply channels, and seasonal trade receipts. However, demand pressures remain elevated, as corporates, students, and importers still depend heavily on the street market. Official Market (NFEM) ₦1,478/$1 — down slightly from ₦1,480.15 the prior day. ₦2,030.50/£1 — pound sterling rate. ₦1,620.45/€1 — euro rate. The official market remained cushioned by Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) interventions, helping moderate volatility. Key Takeaway The spread between the official and parallel markets narrowed to ₦22, compared with about ₦25 earlier. […]

US Government Shuts Down After Budget Talks Collapse Between Trump, Congress

The US government officially shut down early Wednesday after President Donald Trump and Congress failed to reach a deal on federal funding, triggering widespread disruptions that will affect hundreds of thousands of workers and millions of Americans who rely on public services. The shutdown began at 12:01 am (0401 GMT) following the Senate’s rejection of a short-term funding measure already passed by the House of Representatives. At the heart of the deadlock are Democratic demands for increased health care funding, particularly for the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), which the Trump administration has moved to dismantle. Trump Blames Democrats Trump placed the blame squarely on his opponents, threatening further cuts aimed at progressive priorities. “So we’d be laying off a lot of people that are going to be very affected. And they’re Democrats, they’re going to be Democrats,” Trump said from […]

Harvard to Run ‘Trade Schools’ Under $500m Settlement, Trump Says

President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that his administration is nearing a $500 million settlement with Harvard University, under which the Ivy League school would be required to operate trade schools across the United States. Speaking at the White House, Trump framed the move as both a financial penalty and a workforce development strategy. “They’d be paying about $500 million and they’ll be operating trade schools,” Trump said. “They’re going to be teaching people how to do AI and lots of other things — engines, lots of things. It’s a big investment in trade school done by very smart people, and then their sins are forgiven.” Harvard has not yet responded to Trump’s remarks. The proposal is the latest development in Trump’s unprecedented pressure campaign on elite universities, particularly Harvard, which the administration has accused of failing to protect Jewish students […]

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Tuesday addressed Nigerians to mark the country’s 65th Independence anniversary, delivering a wide-ranging speech that reflected on the nation’s past, outlined his administration’s economic and social reforms, and offered a message of hope for the future. Tinubu recalled the sacrifices of Nigeria’s founding fathers — including Herbert Macaulay, Nnamdi Azikiwe, Obafemi Awolowo, Ahmadu Bello, and Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti — who envisioned a strong, prosperous, and united Nigeria. He noted that, despite challenges such as civil war, dictatorship, and political crises, the country had made significant progress in education, healthcare, infrastructure, and economic growth since 1960.

US Judge Blocks Trump Administration’s Plan to Lay Off 500 VOA Employees

A US federal judge has temporarily halted the Trump administration’s plan to lay off more than 500 employees of Voice of America (VOA), following legal challenges over the move’s legality. The ruling, issued Monday by US District Judge Royce Lamberth, suspended the layoffs that were set to take effect on September 30, 2025. The terminations were spearheaded by Kari Lake, senior advisor to the US Agency for Global Media (USAGM), who described the cuts as a “long-overdue effort to dismantle a bloated, unaccountable bureaucracy.” However, Judge Lamberth said the Reduction in Force plan was “arbitrary and capricious and not in accordance with law,” pointing out that the defendants failed to comply with an earlier injunction issued in April. “The Court no longer harbors any doubt that defendants lack a plan to comply with the preliminary injunction, and instead have been […]

Federal Gov’t Urged to Boost Creative Industry Through Classical Music

Stakeholders in Nigeria’s creative sector have called on the Federal Government to prioritise the teaching of classical music in schools as part of efforts to strengthen the country’s creative arts industry. The appeal was made at the annual Symphony and Bcanto performance night in Abuja, organised to mark Classical Music Month. Programme organiser, Mrs. Nana Gbolahan, said music should not remain confined to elite circles but be made accessible nationwide, starting from the grassroots. “The government can assist by introducing music into schools. Currently, the school curriculum does not have music as a separate subject. If we merge classical music with our indigenous sounds, just as we did with Afrobeat, Nigeria can create a new genre of classical music,” she said. Gbolahan added that increased awareness would not only promote cultural exchange but also help Nigeria gain recognition abroad for […]

Islamic States, European Powers Rally Behind Trump’s Gaza Peace Plan

A coalition of Muslim-majority nations and European powers on Monday backed a plan by US President Donald Trump aimed at ending the war in Gaza — a proposal that has already drawn criticism from some Palestinians as a “farce.” The joint statement of support came from Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, and Pakistan. The countries said they welcomed Trump’s “sincere efforts” and pledged readiness to work with the United States and other parties to secure implementation. The backing marks a rare moment of alignment, with Saudi Arabia’s stance seen as especially significant as it considers normalisation with Israel — a priority for both Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who endorsed the plan and warned Hamas of more devastation if it refused. European allies also lined up behind Trump’s proposal. French President Emmanuel […]
