Being able to send or transfer money to Nigeria from outside the country used to be a much easier task, thanks to a wide range of international money transfer services to pick from. A few months ago, the Central Bank shut down those operations.

For example, there was TransferWise, now Wise. It used to be one of the easiest means of international money transfers to Nigeria. Wise was affected by the clampdown and you can no longer send money to Nigeria using that service.
