The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has said it is partnering with Microfinance Banks (MFBs), to enhance financial inclusion to stimulate growth of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the country.

Mr Sah Nyashi, CBN Controller, Yola Branch, said this on Saturday at the inauguration of Dabtikir Microfinance Bank Limited in Hong, headquarters of Hong Local Government Area of Adamawa.

Nyashi, represented by Adamu Yusuf, Head Currency Management Office, CBN, said such partnership was also imperative towards ensuring effective implementation of the Agricultural Credit Guarantee Scheme.

“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.

According to him, microfinance provides access to capital critical for small businesses to thrive, create employment opportunities and improve living standards.
