“CBN would continue to partner with you in the areas of Micro Small and Medium Enterprises, (MSME), Agricultural Credit Guarantee Scheme and Financial Inclusion.

“This came at a time when the less privileged really needed access funds to develop and expand their economic activities.

“Microfinancing is part of the strategy CBN implore to enhance the economic growth and sustainability in Nigeria by channeling loans/credit to the populace,” he said.

He urged the people to take advantage of the opportunities to improve their businesses.

Also speaking, Dr Asongo Abraham described MFBs as “beacon” of hope for community development and nation building.
