Checks indicate that the naira has been removed as a fiat currency option for transactions on KuCoinplatform and the Exchange has already begun the necessary adjustments to its technology to accommodate the delisting of the Naira as soon as practicable.

Removal of the naira from the platforms limits the ability to manipulate the exchange rates against the Nigerian currency. This is expected to further strengthen the value of the naira.

The NSA issued directives that naira be deleted from the crypto platforms as one of the strategies to strengthen the local currency.

Relatedly, the SEC had, during a meeting with the Blockchain Industry Coordinating Committee of Nigeria(BICCoN), the umbrella body of all major blockchain and cryptocurrency associations in Nigeria, disclosed the commission’s plans to delist the Naira from P2P (peer-to-peer) crypto currency trading space in order to avoid the level of manipulation that is currently happening on the platform.

Acting director-general of SEC, Dr. Emomotimi Agama, while reacting to the delisting by KuCoin, expressed delight that the crypto exchanges are heeding to the directives of the ONSA and the SEC, describing it as a welcome development.

He said, “we are happy that they have started complying with the directives by the NSA. We ask that those involved in sharp practices that undermine national interest should cease and desist. It is in our interest as a people to protect what belongs to us. Anyone that disobeys directives should be ready to face the full weight of the law.”

Agama stated that, as the apex regulator of the capital market, the SEC is cooperating with the Office of the National Security Adviser, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and other relevant agencies to achieve the national objective of making sure that illegality is not allowed to thrive.
