Favour said she needed to convert naira to CFA which is the currency used in Togo. She said she converted N200,000, which amounted to 80,000 CFA.

According to currency.me.uk, 1 West African CFA is worth N2.8157 as of October 1, 2024.

Her words:

“A few months ago, I applied for several volunteering opportunities and was accepted to volunteer with a sports NGO in Atakpamé, Togo.

“I’d been to Togo once before, but my trip was mostly within Lomé. Travelling farther felt a bit scary, but I was fortunate to find company along the way who helped me navigate the journey to a reasonable extent. I eventually made it to Atakpamé, albeit late, but the experience was well worth it! I’m so glad I took the leap.”
