Kaduna State Achieves 66% Financial Inclusion, Adds 800,000 Adults to Formal Economy
The Finance Commissioner of Kaduna State, Ibrahim Tanko Moham, announced that the state's financial inclusion has risen to 66%, with 800,000 adults joining the formal economy through account ownership in three years. The state's approach is people-focused and proactive, aiming to empower citizens and strengthen livelihoods.
This growth in financial inclusion is attributed to the state's efforts in deploying a state-led enrollment drive and leveraging technology to link millions of National Identification Numbers (NIN) with Bank Verification Numbers (BVN). Kaduna State's inclusive journey is seen as a significant milestone towards building a digital economy and enhancing access to financial services for its residents.
