Math fail on my part, sorry. The correct amounts are as follows:
At the parallel market rate (also known as "street rate", or sometimes the "black market rate") of N740 per USD, that means the withdrawal limits are (currently) $27/day, and $135/week.
Imagine trying to withdraw your $27 worth of funds, and waiting on the ATM to finish spitting out the quantity of 100 for the N200 notes.
And the per-day is even misnamed, since they account for withdrawals only 5 days per week. If you divide the $135 by 7 days instead, that means using cash withdrawals, at an average daily rate, provides only $19 per day of purchasing power.
