Lack of enlightenment,
poor adaptation of technology and poor telecommunication infrastructure have
been identified as reasons for financial exclusion in Nigeria. This lack of financial inclusion caused Nigeria to lack
behind its sub Saharan African (SSA) country peers.
Many of our colleagues in the SSA like Kenya, Ghana,
Ivory Coast and Senegal are
better than us in terms of global system of mobile communication skills
education and adaptation of technology. Every telecom company in Kenya
has helped financial penetration through free skills training and
financial inclusion.
