The exchange will also delist all existing Naira spot trading pairs, including those involving Bitcoin and USDT, from March 7.
The decision to halt Nigerian naira services follows Binance’s earlier delisting of all Naira trading pairs on its peer-to-peer platform on February 28.
The Nigerian government has intensified its regulatory actions against the exchange, demanding nearly $10 billion in compensation.
Furthermore, according to multiple media reports, two senior executives from Binance were arrested last week.
