It was reported that the Naira kicked off the week in mixed sentiments across foreign exchange markets.

This comes as the National Bureau of Statistics reports that the country’s headline inflation dropped slightly in February to 15.06 percent.
Last week, the apex bank data showed that foreign reserves rose to $50.027 billion.
