They collect those monies, and they are chasing dollars to buy\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He said even the Central Bank acknowledged that when they release FAAC, the exchange rate misbehaves during the period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne million here, two million here, and that is still going on. We don\u2019t need that dollar, but we are still buying it. That is an artificial demand, or, put differently, discretionary demand.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe bigger the size of corruption, the bigger the impact of that discretionary demand. It is happening also in the private sector\u201d, he noted.<\/p>\n<p>The tax reform presidential committee chairman added that \u201cmajority of the average Nigerians have not seen a dollar banknote in their life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the elite, the high-net-worth individuals, the super-rich, and some of the middle class have. There is a self-fulfilling prophecy when you think that naira will lose value. You\u2019re converting all your savings to dollars.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe domiciliary account balance has increased by more than $6bn in the last 18 months. The balance is over $30bn\u201d, he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Narrating a conversation he had with a Nigerian billionaire recently, Oyedele said \u201cI was with a billionaire during the Christmas break, and he told me, \u2018Taiwo, you know this is a big issue that you people have to solve?\u2019 I responded, \u2018Tell me more about it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd as we talked, one thing led to another, and he said to me, \u2018Do you know I needed N50m, and I didn\u2019t have naira because he\u2019d converted everything to dollars. He called his friend, and that one too didn\u2019t have naira.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI said, \u2018Sir, how are we supposed to solve this problem? It is all of us together.\u2019 The public sector has part of the blame, and so does the private sector. Imagine that we just take off that demand from the market. Then Nigeria can be at the level of South Africa and Kenya where if you want to pay for a hotel and you bring out dollars, they will send you back to find rand.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to the committee, illicit demands for dollar put a lot of strain on the foreign exchange market.
