Nigerian central bank to set up national micro-lender
Leading presidential candidate says he will not give governor a second term
Nigeria’s central bank will establish a national micro-finance institution, while a leading presidential candidate has said he will not give the current governor a second term.
Central Bank of Nigeria governor Godwin Emefiele announced plans to set up a lender with a mandate to make micro-loans to small businesses and individuals. The micro-lender would help boost Nigera’s very low financial inclusion rates, Emefiele told a conference in Abuja on January 17, local publication Today reported.
