Social media user who left Nigeria in 2014 shares exchange rate before leaving Nigeria in 2014.
"I left Nigeria for Canada in September 2014.
My tuition was $27,000 and living expenses were $10,000, totaling $37,000 CAD.
At the exchange rate of 145 Naira per dollar, that came to ₦5,365,000.
Fast forward to October 2024:
The same $37,000 CAD now equals ₦46,620,000 at the current exchange rate of 1,260 Naira per dollar.
That’s an extra ₦40 million compared to what I paid back then."
