  The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is set to hold an emergency meeting to address the uncertainty surrounding the future of Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle. According to sources, Chelle is considering terminating his contract as the team's manager. The development comes amidst Nigeria's struggles to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. With only seven points from six games, the Super Eagles are currently fourth in Group C, behind leaders South Africa, Rwanda, and Benin Republic. Pressure has been mounting on Chelle, prompting him to travel to Europe in search of reinforcements to bolster the team's defense. However, the uncertainty surrounding his future with the team has reportedly led to a change of heart, with Chelle now considering terminating his contract. The NFF's emergency meeting aims to address the situation and find a resolution. The fate of Chelle and the Super Eagles' World Cup qualifying campaign hang in the balance.

BLOOMBERG PREDICTS NAIRA WILL RECORD WORST PERFORMANCE IN 25YEARS IN 2024.(PHOTO).

Bloomberg predicts naira will record worst performance in 25years in 2024

Bloomberg, a US-based media organisation, on Friday, predicted that the naira will decline further in 2024.

According to the publication, the naira is poised for its worst year since the return to democracy in 1999 adding that analysts are predicting further depreciation in 2024.

The report said naira fell 55 percent this year to N1,043 per dollar at the official market on Thursday.

The decline, Bloomberg said, made the naira the third worst-performing currency in the world behind the Lebanese pound and the Argentine peso — among 151 currencies tracked by the media firm.

It reported foreign reserves in Nigeria are at the lowest in six years with most of them burdened by overdue short-term overseas obligations.

In the non-deliverable forwards market, according to the report, the naira’s 12-month contract is trading near a record low of N1,294.44 to the dollar.

The depreciation began in June 2023, after the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) unified all segments of the forex exchange (FX) market, allowing the currency to trade more freely. 

Thereafter, President Bola Tinubu scrapped the petrol subsidy.

The publication said the end of the petrol subsidy and naira depreciation fueled inflation, which is at 28.2 percent, while the benchmark interest rate is at 18.75 percent.

“The negative real interest rate has dissuaded overseas investors,” the report said.

Vetiva Capital Management Ltd told the publication that the naira may depreciate further unless Tinubu’s government attracts international investments or ramps up oil output.

Bloomberg’s prediction is at variance with that of Bismarck Rewane, chief executive officer, who said Nigeria’s exchange rate is expected to rise in 2024.

Olayemi Cardoso, the apex bank governor, also projected that exchange rate pressures are expected to reduce significantly in the coming year.
