The Federal Government is implementing sustainable mechanisms to achieve a $1 trillion economy by 2030, emphasizing the importance of financial inclusion. Senator Ibrahim Hadejia, Deputy Chief of Staff to the President, made this announcement on Thursday in Benin during the 8th Annual National Conference of The Association of Mobile Money and Bank Agents in Nigeria (AMMBAN).
Represented by Abubakar Zauro, the Technical Advisor to the President on Economic and Financial Inclusion, Hadejia highlighted that these mechanisms aim to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor. He reaffirmed the government’s commitment to working with all sector players to achieve its economic and financial inclusion goals.
“As we seek to achieve this milestone, financial inclusion is at the heart of our economic agenda. This means ensuring that all Nigerians, regardless of location, gender, or socioeconomic status, are not only included but also empowered in our financial system,” Hadejia stated.
