<p>I don't know what you mean by this but will assume you mean the transaction was for an amount that is currently equivalent to USD 50. That makes it too small to be worth much effort to recover, you wouldn't spend 1000 USD to recover USD 50.</p>

<p>You can't reverse a Bitcoin transaction.</p>

<p>Under some circumstances you can invalidate an unconfirmed transaction if you act quickly enough and are sufficiently knowledgeable. In your case it is too late.</p>

The questioner already mentioned that his transaction has 22 confirmations.

@UgamKamat I wasn't sure whether he meant his transaction got 22 confirmations or whether there were 22 blocks mined since he broadcasted his transaction, but I guess you're right.

Given Nairaex is a centralized exchange, it is highly unlikely that you would have the private key associated with the address. Your best hope is to contact the customer service of the exchange and ask them nicely if they would be able to help you. That is your only way out.

Since [NairaEx](https://nairaex.com/) is a Bitcoin exchange in Nigeria, you should ask them for help. It seems likely that they control the private keys associated with that address and are therefore the only people who can assist.
